summer drinks

I could go on and on about the summer vegetables in my life these days, but there have been some tasty beverages too! Jessie and I visited the pop-up matcha tea house in Soho last week. Despite the air quality alert and the 97 plus degree weather in NYC, we ordered hot matcha and enjoyed every sip. I treated myself to an appropriate matcha bowl since it just seems to make the experience even more enjoyable. Jessie treated me to the fancy, ceremony grade matcha, which does a good job at kicking cancer butt. So more matcha in my beverage diet lately!

Here is my new bowl.

Then, Kevin and I experimented with iced shaken matcha!



I have made many batches of sun tea lately. Darjeeling and any herbs ready from the garden. This time, lemon basil and ginger mint.
