[recipe] Iced Strawberry Tea

[Guest guest]

This isa really good treat even if it is colder now

outside.I have used partially thawed strawberries

with good result, so if you can't find any good fresh ones

in your market, don't despair. For the garnish simply place

a nicely shaped whole frozen strawberrry afloat in the bevvie.

Mmmmm

 

 

Iced Strawberry Tea

 

1 pint fresh or frozen strawberries (thawed if frozen)

4 cups cold tea

1/3 cup sugar

1/4 cup lemon juice

 

Set aside five whole fresh strawberries for a garnish.

Cover and puree the rest in a blender; strain into a

pitcher. Stir in tea, sugar and lemon juice until sugar

dissolves. Chill. Serve over ice; garnish with berries.

I come into the peace of wild things

who do not tax their lives with forethought

of grief. I come into the presence of still water.

And I feel above me the day-blind stars

waiting with their light. For a time

I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

~ Wendell Berry
