Sun Tea.

[itlw8]

old day old tea is nasty so why would anyone save it until the mold grew ?

I make it all summer long. I like it with a few bags of regular and a few bags of Raspberry team in it. The bacteria thing drives me crazy. I'll drink my sun tea with my raw cookie dough and homemade ice cream.

My favorite way too!

I've been drinking sun tea for 25 years.... what bacteria?

we do it all the time, usually we place it on the wall in the backyard and the sun does the rest.. by time lunch it is wonderful

I do sun tea in the summer time and in the cooler months I fill a gallon jar with the hottest tap water I can get and brew the tea for 2 hours. I add some peppermint extract before putting the finished tea into the refrigerator to give it a little zing.

I make it for hubby during the summer. I also throw in good sized handfuls of herbs from my garden (singly or in combination) - peppermint, spearmint, orange mint, chocolate mint, anise hyssop, pineapple sage, lemon balm... he loves it all

My aunt still does this to this day. Had never heard of the bacteria thing before... but it hasn't killed any of us yet!

My mom used to make it growing up
Though I hear leaving it out in the sun doesn't really do anything in particular.
