I grew up on sweet iced tea in the Redneck Riviera. Now in New England, I've needed to adapt. I am now surrounded by the finest teas in the world. I know because my colleague and I found them, brought them home and turned them into something new. We hope you enjoy our tea and we hope you learn something.

Kandyan Bliss

I just located a tea recipe named after Kandy, the town that first produced tea in Sri Lanka. Be careful - this isn't your grandmother's tea (unless your grandmother is from Kandy).

Prepare a good brew of iced tea. Ceylon tea clouds when iced and is not considered good for making American iced tea for that reason. For fun and authenticity, let's stick with it.

Add 1 part gin for every three parts tea.

Squeeze lemon juice and sugar (or sugar syrup) to taste.

Drink it responsibly.
