I am trying really hard to think of recipes to share for cold winter days… meanwhile the temperatures are in the 60s and 70s here in California so I think I have failed so far. I also am lacking a lot of kitchen utensils until my things arrive so easy and simple was what I was going for.
Fresh citrus from farmer’s markets are everywhere! I have been trying to stay healthy and hydrated so I created this easy Mandarin Green Tea with Honey, enjoy it hot or cold. If you have ever tried the brand Honest Tea, this is what it reminds me of, the flavors are simple and it tastes unprocessed. I am loving having so much amazing citrus around all the time.
