Tea-d Up

Youll have to pry the iced tea from our cold, dead hands, because we
arent ready to say goodbye to summer yet.

Denial is best steeped in an Eva
Solo Iced Tea Maker ($99.95). Shaped like a milk bottle, the glass
carafe comes with all the fittings for making homebrew, so you simply
place your tea leaves in the filter, fill with hot water, let cool in
the fridge then serve.

We suggest turning The Ô Dor citrus-bergamot rooibos blend Trahison
Byzantine ($18/100ml) into the tasty tea sangria they serve up at
The Urban Tea Merchant by adding white grape juice, a splash of fruit
syrup and sliced fruits.

Sip it while shopping for fall sweaters to ease into the season that
isnt summer.
