It seems like everyone is making fancy iced tea today, and I have some fresh fruit in the fridge so I thought I’d experiment! Cut up a huge strawberry, macerated it in sugar and lime juice while the tea was brewing, poured it over ice and added a ton of sugar and a splash of pineapple juice. Fruity, minty, sweet, a little tart, and SO refreshing. It’s already brutally hot outside (thanks, NY weather), so I think I’ll be adding this to the regular iced-tea lineup: good thing limes are 10 for a buck!

sounds tasty! where are you getting limes for that price? jealous!
Queens—our grocery prices are dirt cheap, 2 giant cartons of strawberries were $4!
Too bad MTA prices to get to and from Queens would negate the savings. bah. Enjoy the cheap fruits for me too!
Pass me some!
I think we need to work on teleporters so we can do some iced-tea swaps!
Moroccan mint is a favorite of mine too. :)
Definitely going to buy some Moroccan Mint when I go to Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill on Wednesday. Never had it, but to sounds great with all that fruit.
