Airplane Mode "Sunshine Tea"
It’s mid summer and if you’re anything like me, you always have a carafe full of a refreshing chilled beverage to pour over ice. Did you know that Barbari herbal blends make a lovely caffein free tea? Here’s a little recipe from my kitchen notebook detailing how I like to prepare Airplane Mode as a “sunshine tea” (aka Arnold Palmer) in the summer months.
I hope this recipe quenches your thirst and helps you lean into relaxation bliss!
Cheers,
