It seems like every country store or farmer's market from May until September has one thing in common - fresh, ripe fruit for sale. A walk through a market and the intoxicating aroma of juicy plums, ripe strawberries and plump peaches fills the air. The sweetness makes it hard to walk away. Here's a thought - why not incorporate that delectable taste in your next iced tea? Not only will you stay hydrated, but your taste buds and anyone you share this delicious tea with will thank you!
