Why have that plain old boring Iced Tea this summer when you can create your own unique blend. Get inspired by these recipes for a flavor filled summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"15<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Many people just pick up some plain tea bags when they make iced tea, which is delicious, but can get a bit boring after awhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can easily vary the tea, the preparation method and\/or the additions to come up with your own signature blend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am sipping on some sun tea as I write this made with a blend of store brand decaf tea and Sangria Zinger<\/a> (a blend of hibiscus, pineapple, blood oranges and other citrus). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am currently out of my mom's absolute favorite iced tea from Luzianne<\/a>. She even bought me a few boxes online a month or so before she passed away because we couldn't find it locally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sun Tea is Dangerous, possibly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Some people insist sun tea is dangerous<\/a> because you can get food poisoning. Oh those joy suckers trying to ruin all the fun in everything using science. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, it is absolutely possible to get food poisoning from sun brewed tea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the jar is not sanitized or the tea itself has bacteria your sun tea jar could be a microorganism breeding ground because it is brewed in the \"danger zone\" of 40\u00b0F to 140\u00b0F. It is not hot enough to kill the bacteria, and actually can encourage it's growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make Iced Tea: 2 ways <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With all of the above dangers listed, I still drink sun brewed tea in the heat of summer. It only takes a few hours in the sunny Southern California heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use a 2 quart mason jar because I am usually the only one that drinks it. I recommend one like this<\/a> with a nice lid for pouring. The smaller amount chills quickly in the fridge, to minimize time in the danger zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the sun isn't out or I don't feel like waiting, I will brew the tea in 2 cups boiling water and add ice and water to fill up my jar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
