Peppermint herbal sun tea (which technically isn't tea, but tisane)is a great way to hydrate during the summer months. It is cool, refreshing, and won't dehydrate you like caffeinated beverages will. In fact, I recently asked my doctor and she said that drinking unsweetened herbal tea counts towards your daily glasses of water.
You will need:
1 gallon ice tea jar (I found mine at the grocery store for $5)
4-5 bags of peppermint herbal tea
1 gallon of water
Fill your ice tea jar with cool water, put tea bags in the jar, and set out on the porch in full sun for the day. I prefer my tea without sweetener, but you can add sugar or honey if desired. It would be best to add sweetener while the tea is still warm so that it will fully dissolve. Pour over ice and store the rest in the refrigerator.
