  6. I don't know how I missed out on the existence of "sun tea" - but I was at home over the weekend and my Dad's girlfriend (who is from the South) was talking about it. And I was like "ya ya ... iced tea." And then she described it and I couldn't believe what I was hearing. It's just water + leaves + sun = tea. Literally, SUN tea.

    sweet simplicity! the world is a wonderful place.

  7. I've heard of sun tea recently but didn't know how it worked. It looks refreshing and really simple. I may have to try it out on my window sill too :)

  10. I'm always scared of leaving water in the sun... maybe I should get over this fear and try this!
    What recipe did you use?

  14. I live by sun tea, even in the winter! It's actually even BETTER in the winter, because it's heartening to yield something warm and cozy despite the cold weather.

  15. Hibiscus tea + honey + lime? Sounds perfect! Great drink after a long tiring day, or during the summer days. :)
