Sun Tea

As the weather gets warmer, consider brewing sun tea to stay hydrated and healthy.  The sun's rays produce an optimal temperature for brewing a wide range of teas.  Simply put 1/4-1/3 cup of looseleaf tea or 8 teabags in a pitcher, fill with cool water, and add any additional flavorings (I love fresh mint and lemon slices).

Allow your brew to sit in the sun for 3-5 hours, then pour the tea through a kitchen strainer into another pitcher.  Pour the sun-brewed tea over a filled glass of ice or chill in the fridge to enjoy later.
