Just for Fun: During the summer when our children were small, they were forever asking for sodas or other sugar laden drinks. Also they wanted to emulate us by having a cup of tea. Those of you who have inadvertently tried giving your children drinks that may contain caffeine of large amounts of sugar know that these are hyperactive combinations. You also probably feel a little guilty thinking 'my child should be drinking something that is more healthy and not something that 'wires' them up'. Well we formulated a 'Kid's Tea'. We theorized that the Herb and Fruit teas are full of natural fruits which are very tasty and refreshing; there are significant amounts of Vitamin C and other essential nutrients in these dried fruits and they are caffeine free, so all we had to do was make a blend that was appealing to children's taste buds. This is where my children came in - they became human guinea pigs or perhaps a better term might be 'young tea tasters'. Interestingly, when formulating these blends the reaction whether they were tasty or not was swift - probably one of the fastest tasting sessions we have ever carried out. These teas can be enjoyed by children and adults alike - either hot or cold!. At home we would always keep a pitcher of Kid's Tea in the refrigerator which our children consumed with great delight. A few tips: - do not sugar these teas excessively, there are natural sugars in the fruits which sweeten the brew when rehydrated. - make popsicles from the Kid's Tea for your children to enjoy outside with their friends - let them pour their own drinks (outside of course!, they have to learn sometime) - the low cost of kid's tea (despite it's wonderful taste) makes a learning curve relatively inexpensive. - in the evening after dinner they to can enjoy a warm beverage and you can enjoy a relatively peaceful moment as a family.
