The perfect summer beverage.
Chop up a bunch of fresh ginger, pour boiling water over and let it steep overnight. Drain off the liquid. I added a squirt of maple syrup and put in the fridge. This was my first batch and I got the ginger kind of strong – just added more water. Mint is delicious, but alas – no got. A friend had this at her dinner party the other night - something she had in Hawaii last year – and I plan on keeping in the fridge for the rest of the summer.
Yummy doodle!

A smiley emoticon – well that’s annoying. I have no idea how it got there.
I ditched my Typepad blog cause I didn’t want to pay 90 bucks a year and chose WordPress over Blogger cause I’m not a fan of that big orange B. I like a few things here, but am not really feeling the love for WordPress like I was hoping. The coming weeks are going to be a complete re-haul of my web presence and I have no idea how it will all end up. I’ll keep everyone posted.
Sorry about the smiley face – blech!

Funny…I was at a friend’s house for dinner last weekend and she served me this exact drink. It was absolutely delicious. And now I see it again here! I have a batch on the stove as we speak. Can hardly wait until tomorrow to try it out…especially as it is sweltering hot here!

ooooh – you gonna like it! also good for the tummy.
It’s bloody hot here as well, although it’s eased off a bit the last two days.
hugs!
