All stocked up on healthy snacks and homemade sun tea. Gonna play Baldur's Gate all weekend.

Tea brewed over a couple to few hours in the sun. Drop some teabags into a large glass container, seal it up, and place it into sunlight. Works best on especially hot days, as you can run the risk of bacteria if it doesn't get to a hot enough temperature to kill it.

Interesting. Why not use a water boiler? Does it taste differently when warmed up slowly by sun?

I suspect some folks would say yes, there's a taste difference, but I'm not real sure there is. For me it's something my Grandma made, so it has that special comfort angle.
