Cool Summer Tea

July 10, 2012 by Aliesha

The real feel temperature was 116 degrees yesterday!  While I drink lots of water, I like other beverages on occasion.  It’s too hot for coffee, so I’ve turned to tea.  I used to drink lots of sweet tea, but since we have cut out refined sweeteners, I’ve said goodbye to my beloved Mickey D’s tea!

But I’ve found a new love… Tazo Passion Tea!  I fell for it at Starbuck’s, but I have replicated it at home for much, much less $$!

I brew a cup of Tazo Passion Tea at night (tea purchased at Target – $3.49/20), sweeten it with a little organic raw honey (1 tsp.?), and let it sit in the fridge overnight.  In the morning, I have a lovely glass of sweet herbal tea to sip on all day long!

Do you like iced tea?

*While I mention Tazo Tea in this post, I have not been paid or perked in any way to share about it. I paid for the tea myself, and all opinions are my own!

Enjoy!
