Tea-d Up

Tea-d Up

You’ll have to pry the iced tea from our cold, dead hands, because we aren’t ready to say goodbye to summer yet.

Denial is best steeped in an Eva Solo Iced Tea Maker ($99.95). Shaped like a milk bottle, the glass carafe comes with all the fittings for making homebrew, so you simply place your tea leaves in the filter, fill with hot water, let cool in the fridge then serve.

We suggest turning The Ô Dor citrus-bergamot rooibos blend Trahison Byzantine ($18/100ml) into the tasty tea sangria they serve up at The Urban Tea Merchant by adding white grape juice, a splash of fruit syrup and sliced fruits.

Sip it while shopping for fall sweaters to ease into the season that isn’t summer.
