Forgive me for waxing rhapsodic, but it is oh so good! Made all the better when you only get to have it once or twice a year. Great flavor (especially the day after), so sweet as to almost hurt, completely clear (NEVER cloudy!), and the beautiful amber color. ::deep sigh:: That, my friends, is all that iced tea should be! I had a glass of tea this week for the first time in over a year. You see, I'm not allowed to drink it any more. Me, a Southerner born and raised! It's almost like having part of me amputated. You know all those anti-oxidants that people say you should drink tea for because they're good for you? Yeah, those would be the same things that put rocks in my kidneys; it's like drinking a liquid kindey stone. I had to quit drinking it cold turkey almost (gosh) 5 years ago, and I thought it would kill me. After about 2 years of complete abandonment, I started allowing myself to have 1 or 2 glasses a year. This was my time for this year. And was it ever worth the wait!
Currently feeling: bliss
