Feeling the heat this summer?
Summer’s heat can particularly irritate our systems, especially those with a fiery disposition! Our Summer Serenity Sun Tea is crafted with cooling herbs to help maintain temperature balance and hydrate your body on those hot summer days.


Nostalgic Inspiration
One of my favorite memories growing up was my mom making sun tea on hot summer days. Each sip of Summer Serenity brings me back to those moments as a kid. Inspired by this nostalgic flavor, our blend offers a refreshing twist with added herbal benefits :)

Sun Infusion
• Place 4-6 tbsp of herb and about 32oz of water into a glass jar with a lid (like a mason jar).
• Let sit in the sunshine for 2-4 hours. Longer for a stronger taste.
• Strain the tea, and serve over ice.
 
Purchase the glass jar we use here.


Stove-Top
• Add 1-2 tbsp of herb to a loose leaf tea strainer or directly into a glass (we’ll strain it later).
• Heat 1 cup of water till it is almost boiling. No boiling water for tea!
• Pour in hot water and cover. Let infuse for 10-20 minutes (longer for a stronger taste).
• Once done brewing, remove the tea strainer or strain the infusion through a fine mesh sieve.
• If you’d like add sweetener of choice before letting it cool.
• Serve over ice and enjoy!
