Try Refrigerator Tea - An Iced Summer Sensation

Thursday, November 12, 2009

It's that time of year when you do not want anything that will heat your kitchen to do especially on the stove or a burner on the stove again! So, you know what that means. Everything possible will be prepared outside on the grill, and everyone will drink either tea or water SO - and love it.

I remember back affectionately SE tea as a preteen in the 70s. I can still see the gallon glass pickle glass, carefully washed and dried to remove allScent of cucumber juice. It held an amber-colored liquid, as she sat in the bright sunshine on our fence made of boulders. Everyone was SO Tea - it was all the rage this summer! It was my job to find the best spot on the glass. Much depends on the time of the day it was. The glass had received from direct sunlight to brew the tea, and the fence was usually the best choice.

The way we are SO tea time to use leaves or bags, was the pickle jar with lid, about aCup sugar, and of course water. We would be the water and sugar to the sugar into the pickle jar first, then the bags. I would always make sure that the strings attached to the bags hung over the edge of the pickle jar so I could replace the cover over it. This kept the bags before the crash into the glass. We would let the sun tea to brew for about two hours, and then enjoy ice during dinner.

We have never iced tea at that time about our SO worried. But times havechanged, and it was noted that there may be bacteria in the sun tea, in particular, a type of bacteria called Alcaligenes viscolactis. It appears that this bacterium is in the water. If the glass sun tea sitting in the sun for a few hours, can grow bacteria. The warmth of the sun can be enough to brew, but it is not hot enough to kill bacteria.

Scientists who have studied this phenomenon of bacteria in the sun tea, have found that the caffeine that is naturally found in some teas cankeep growing the bacteria, but only for a few hours. SO if you herbal tea leaves, or to prepare decaffeinated black, you have accidentally selected two species that are wonderful for the cultivation of bacteria!

What could these bacteria to you and your family? It is said that can Alcaligenes viscolactis abdominal infections and diseases cause. This is not a very pleasant way for each day to spend a nice summer! How can you tell if your SO tea contains this bacteria? When the teais freshly brewed, it's hard to say. However, when the sun was tea in the refrigerator, check it carefully.

If there are any weird looking particles floating around in the brewery, which look something like this rope, you have to drink bacteria in any case in your Sun. Whatever you do, do not drink this brew! It is recommended that you wash the tea and the container that held it carefully before you brew again try to. Personally, I would discard the container, purchase andanother. There is no point opportunities!

How do you prepare tea How safe? Is there a way to prevent the growth of bacteria and keep your brew of you make you sick? Yes, there is! If you prepare for the search for a little nostalgia, and want a safe SUN tea, so you will surely enjoy a glass of iced goodness can, here's all you have to do.

One way to make sure IT is serving iced tea to the water you use to make the brew to boil for five fullMinutes. Boiling the water will kill any bacteria. Another and perhaps the best way is to drink a sun in order to prepare the special "no heat" sun tea. Granted, it's not really "sun" tea, but if security is a factor, this is the best method to use. An alternative to boiling water and a sure way to eliminate all bacteria, is used to clean water through a steam distillation process, and the oxygen supply.

Refrigerator Tea is very easy to make, and delicious taste!Just place two liters of water in a glass jar - no plastic! Plastic can absorb odors and will make your tea to have a special flavor. Position 8 teaspoon of loose black leaves in the water, and place the pot in the fridge. Leave it overnight. The next morning, strain the drink with a fine sieve.

If sweetening is preferred, add the sugar to the water before the leaves into the pot. You can use any kind of tea you like in thisRecipe, but the black tea very well. Serve the tea is poured on ice in a tall glass.
