trinityvixenI? Am a genius.
I was sitting here at work going, "I want tea." Then I would go, "But tea is hot, and I am already hot. There should be some way to have cold tea."
At work, we have one of those K-cup tea/coffee machines, that you put in a plasticy cup and it gets punctured and hot water going through it gets you your drink. Next thought: "I can't use that! It will only make the tea hot!"
Then: "Wait. We have a water cooler. If I go get one of the regular packets of tea from the office and leave it to brew in my water bottle filled with cold-tap water from the cooler--PRESTO! Cold tea! Amazing!"
Yes, all of that was how I actually thought through this process. I am so smart.
ETA: SUCCESS! We have cold tea!

Date: 2007-03-23 11:58 pm (UTC)1. lipton makes tea that is supposed to brew in cold water. I bought it. It does not work well at all. Consider yourself warned.
2. on the snopes thing, who the heck takes a bath at 130 degrees? Seriously. Hot tubs cant be legally over 114. Wow. And I LIKE hot baths. Crazy.
3. Alternate option. Get really big water bottle, brew hot tea, put in fridge, next day do the same with a diffrent bottle. Every day...cold tea waiting for you
And I have not gotten sick from making sun tea. Seriously. Use a glass jar and filtered water and you wont die.
