标题: 冷饮清凉热饮风味--薄荷茶

这两个星期我们这里白天都是90F以上了，热得都不想吃饭。每天傍晚就是一盘沙拉或者几片西瓜对付着过。这天气却特别适合一些消暑的植物生长，我种的两盆薄荷，都长得很茂盛。在炎热的午后，做一杯冰冻的薄荷茶，配上一小块绿豆饼，手握一本好书。哪儿都不想去呢！

根据互动百科有关薄荷的记录：
“薄荷辛凉性发汗解热药，治流行性感冒、头疼、目赤、身热、咽喉、牙床肿痛等症。处用可治神经痛、皮肤瘙痒、皮疹和湿疹等。平常以薄荷代茶，清心明目。其叶长于发汗，梗偏于理气。 ”

食谱写于2010年夏天。

This was made during the peak of summer. It was more than 90F today and I had absolutely no appetite for anything. I walked out to my garden during hot afternoon. Clipped a few stems of sweet peppermint to make this mint tea, and sweetened with honey.

With a good book at hand... my afternoon is just perfect !

材料：
1 杯新鲜的薄荷叶
2 杯水
冰糖/红糖/蜂蜜适量

Ingredients：
1 cup of fresh mint leaves
2 cups of water
Rock sugar/Brown sugar/Honey to taste

1. 院里采收来的一盆薄荷。洗净后摘下大约一杯的薄荷叶，我会稍微用手抓抓。

2. 小锅里倒入两杯水煮滚后加入薄荷叶，加盖煮几分钟分钟，不要太久了。

3. 熄火趁热加入一个红茶包，加盖泡大约两分钟。如果用冰糖和红糖这个时候可以加入。如果用蜂蜜，可以等过滤倒入杯子，稍微降温了才加入。

1. Harvest some mint leaves from my garden. Clean and pick the leaves, crush the leaves a little with hand.
2. In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to boil with mint leaves in it, cover and cook for a few minutes.
3. Turn off the stove and add 1 red tea bag into the pot. Cover with lid and wait for 2 minutes before adding sugar, if honey is used, add only before serving.
4. Pour the tea into a cup, it could be serve hot too.

过滤倒入杯子里，加冰块。就好啦！热饮也别有风味。
