If you have ever lived in the Sun Belt you know how hot it gets during the summer. You also know how nice it is to sit by the pool with a cold drink in your hand. Now some of you who have read my blog in the past might think that my drink of choice would be some strange thing that none of you have ever heard of before, but actually I love sun tea. Plain and simple old fashioned sun tea.
For those of you who might not know what sun tea is it is a tea made by using heat from the sun to steap the tea. Using the sun to steap the tea give the drink a nice mellow flavor, allows you more controll over how strong the tea gets, and it brings out a special flavor in the tea that you don't get by boiling the water on the stove. It is a very simple drink to make because all you need is water, tea bags of any flavor, and a glass container. There are people out there who will warn you about the dangers of sun tea and how it can lead to harmful bacteria to growing in the tea (for more information follow this Link) I have been making sun tea for years and I have never had a problem with it before.
Like I said before sun tea is a very mellow drink that is extreamly refreshing. sun tea has a very diffrent flavor to it than traditional iced tea. That almost bitter taste that is found in most teas is taken out by using this steaping process and it is naturally sweeter. Anyone who enjoys sweet tea or iced tea will love this drink. I give it 80 bottle caps because I love this drink and make it almost every few days during the summer as a healthier and cheaper alternitive to sodas.
