A little relief from the heat

A glass of iced tea for this hot day. How do you take your iced tea? Most often, I have herbal iced tea, or decaf black iced tea. Occasionally, I'll put lemon and/or sweetener in it, but I often have it without anything added. We do have mint growing in our garden, so, when I think of it, I put some fresh mint in it.

If it's good tea I take plain, no sweetner no lemon. It tends to be bitter I use splenda but only enough to take away the bitterness. I do like mint in my tea....can I come an get some from you. :-)

My dh drinks Gatorade too, sometimes.

Michele said...

gatorade is especially good in the intense heat because it helps to avoid dehydration.

Staying in Balance said...

Well, there sure is intense heat today!

Unfortunately I ruined my teeth from drinking iced tea all day long when I was in my twenties so I have to avoid drinking sugar drinks. I miss it so much! I drink the sugary mix kind.

Wow. My dad insisted that my mom make our iced tea without sugar. He said we could put sugar in each glass if we wanted to.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
