More summer refreshment


Thérèse's summer beverage hint inspired me to share a few of my own.  Pictured from left to right: iced mocha, iced chai, and peach basil margaritas in two quart jars.

Iced Mocha
Brew four cups of strong coffee; pour into jar.  Stir in two tablespoons of baking cocoa.  Add sugar to taste.  Cool to room temperature; then chill covered in fridge.  Stir well before use, adding milk to taste.

Iced Chai
Pour one quart of boiling water into the jar.  Steep two chai tea bags for five minutes; discard tea bags.  Stir in sugar to taste.  Cool to room temperature; then chill covered in fridge.  Stir well before use, adding milk to taste.

Peach basil margaritas - a peachy take on this Kitchn recipe for strawberry basil margaritas.
