Cook ingredients that you are used to cooking by other techniques, such as fish, chicken, or hamburgers. In other words be comfortable with the ingredients you are using.

Sun Tea Brewing
One of our favourite summer drinks is
ice tea and I don't mean that
sugar with a hint of tea drink I mean real ice tea. We go through a lot of it so it is quite common to see a pitcher of sun tea brewing daily during the warm months. There really isn't much to making sun tea. Basically you put the tea bags in a pitcher, pour water over top then set it in the sun. But why have plain old sun tea when you can kick it up a notch? I absolutely insist on using Red Rose tea. Sorry this is a Canadian product although I have heard tell it is being distributed in the US in some areas. If you can't find this tea use a fine quality orange pekoe tea as a substitute. This tea packs a lot of punch without adding calories.
Method: Place three tea bags in a large pitcher. Add ½ sliced lemon, two spring lemon balm and two sprigs mint. Fill to the top with water. Cover. Place in direct sun for 2 to 3 hours. Put the pitcher into the refrigerator.
To Serve: Pour into a tall glass over ice cubes. Find the nearest shade tree. Sit down and enjoy :)
