Alright, let’s talk about this white tea iced tea, you know, the kind them fancy folks drink. I ain’t no expert, but I know what tastes good, and let me tell ya, this stuff ain’t half bad on a hot day.

Now, some folks say black tea is the best for iced tea. They go on and on about Earl Grey and that Orange Pekoe stuff. But I say, why stick to the same old thing? White tea, that’s somethin’ different. It’s got this kinda light, fruity taste, almost like you mixed in some flowers or somethin’. Not strong and bitter like that black tea, you know? It’s real smooth goin’ down.

And get this, they say you can make iced tea without even boilin’ the water! Imagine that! Just dump the tea in cold water and let it sit. They call it “cold brewin’.” Sounds fancy, but it’s easy as pie. I heard it makes the tea less bitter, which is good, ’cause nobody wants that bitter taste in their mouth. For a big pitcher, like the one I use for lemonade, you throw in maybe ten or twelve spoonfuls of tea. Don’t matter too much, just eyeball it.

• You can use any kind of tea for this cold brewin’ stuff, they say.
• Black tea, green tea, that white tea we talkin’ about, even that fancy oolong stuff.
• Heck, you can even use those fruity teas they sell at the store.
• Only thing is, some teas might need to sit longer than others. But it ain’t rocket science, just gotta try it out.

Now, that white tea, it’s got this fruity taste, so it goes good with sweet stuff. You know, like them strawberry shortcakes or maybe a pie with berries. I ain’t much of a baker, but I do love me some pie and a glass of that iced tea. It’s a real treat, let me tell ya. Specially when it’s hot outside and you been workin’ in the garden all day.

I saw this diet tea at the store the other day, Diet Lipton White Tea Raspberry Iced Tea, it was called. Said it had no calories. I don’t know much about calories, but I figured it couldn’t hurt to try. And it was pretty good! Tasted like raspberries, which I love. It’s already made, so you don’t have to do nothin’ but pour it over ice. Real convenient for when you’re in a hurry.

So, this white iced tea, it’s more than just a drink, I reckon. It’s kinda like… a taste of somethin’ special. Like them old-timey tea ceremonies they have in those foreign countries. I seen it on TV once. Real fancy. But even if you ain’t fancy, you can still enjoy a glass of this stuff. It’s refreshing, it’s got flavor, and it ain’t too hard to make. What more could you want?

And let me tell ya, it’s good for ya too! I don’t know all the science stuff, but they say it’s got things in it that are good for your body. Keeps you healthy, they say. Well, I ain’t complainin’. If somethin’ tastes good and it’s good for ya, that’s a win-win in my book.

So, next time you’re at the store, grab yourself some white tea. Try makin’ it cold brew style. And if you’re feelin’ lazy, get that pre-made raspberry stuff. Either way, you won’t be disappointed. It’s a real nice change from that plain old sweet tea, and it’s perfect for a hot summer day. Trust me on this one, I know what I’m talkin’ about. I might not be no fancy chef, but I know what tastes good. And this white tea iced tea? It tastes darn good.

You can add lemon or some sugar if it’s too plain for you. It’s all about your taste, ain’t nobody can tell you how to drink your own tea. I like mine a little sweet with some ice, but that’s just me, you might want something different.

I once tried it with some mint. Just threw a few leaves in my glass and it was real tasty, you should try it sometime. I like experimenting with drinks and food that’s how you find new tastes.
