Summer - Ice Tea 1950s Style - DIY Recipe

Summer's here! Thrift, health, and nutrition all come together … Take the time to go back to good ole fashion home made cooking, from the depression era.

Forget store bought ice tea!! It's loaded w/sugar … steep your own in your favorite tea flavors, add some healthy green tea, a dash of lemon juice, and float some fresh mango to sweeten.

This 1950s Pyrex coffee pot makes a half gallon of tea for literally pennies.  I purchased the coffee pot at Goodwill for about $3.00.





Boil the water, steep 7 or 8 of your favorite tea bags - or, mix and match, if you like.  This is Lemon Ginger Probiotic tea (4 bags) with Black Tea accent (2 bags) and healthy Green Tea (3 bags).  Steep for 3 or 4 hours, remove tea bags, and store in the refrigerator overnight so the flavors can meld and blend together.

Food!  All my conscious meditation is about food...REAL home made food, not franken food or fast food.  If I'm in the kitchen baking or cooking, or experimenting you know I'm in good space.
