I’m on a couple of kicks lately. Well – come to think of it – several kicks. I’m just going to talk about two of ’em today.
Lately I’m a little obsessed with both iced green tea and fluffy beach reads. It is summer, after all. I’ve made raspberry lemon iced green tea (good), strawberry mint (also good), and blueberry (pretty color, but needs work). And the books, you ask? Well, I finally read The Help and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. The Help was exquisite. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo was so totally engrossing. Loved it.
And after that, I read the fluffiest of the fluffy, a book called Sweet Life by Mia King. Apparently, Ms. King’s books have recipes in the back. I had no idea until I flipped the last page and, voila! Recipes! And, double voila! A recipe for a Lemongrass, Ginger, and Mint Iced Green Tea! I love when kicks come together.
This is my favorite iced green tea variation so far. Which kind of makes me mad because this is the only one I didn’t make up myself.
So anyway, how about some iced green tea? This stuff is terrific. The best. Absolutely perfect for summer. Ginger, lemongrass, green tea – so happy together. I’m also pretty sure it’s kicky enough to power me through hours of web design, so that I can stop being distracted and get back to reading fluff already. Dare to dream.
