Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade DIY

Sat, 12 Jan 2013 16:11:30 -0500

I’ve recently acquired a taste for trying to save $. I should have, a long, long time ago. But, since I live with my sister, I’ve started to learn to conserve. We have twice as much food, electricity, water, etc. So, I found this amazing recipe for the Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade online. It’sexactlylike what they serve at Starbucks, except it’s not $4 for one measly 8 oz cup.

Ingredient List:

1 box TAZO Passion Tea (20 bags)

1 1.75L Bottle of Simply Lemonade (found near the OJ)

Sugar or Truvia

Ice cubes

Total time to make: at least 24 hours

Step One:

In a large, 1 gallon pot (or two 1/2 gallon pots), bring 1 gallon of water to a rolling boil. Meanwhile, open the box of tea and all 20 of the tea packets. Place tea packets inside, on the bottom of a sturdy, 1 gal. plastic juice container that can withstand boiling water.

Step Two:

Once the water has reached a boil, pour all of the water into the 1 gal. juice container. You might want to place this in the sink, or on a non-slip/heat resistant surface. Let the tea steep for at least 10 minutes.

Step Three:

Take the 20 tea bags out, one by one, and place between two spoons, squeezing the excess water/tea out. Discard the tea bags. Wait an additional 5-10 minutes, and then place the container, with a lid in the refrigerator. Let cool overnight. (Patience is hard, I know! This is why I make such a large batch!)

Once the tea has cooled completely, you now have a nice batch of straight, cool, Tazo Passion Tea.

Step Four:

Grab a cocktail shaker, and place in 5-6 (or however many you want) large ice cubes. Then, fill the container 4/5 of the way up with Passion Tea. Take your Simply Lemonade out of the fridge, and shake it well. Then, fill the remainder of the cocktail shaker with lemonade, all the way to the top. Add 1 tsp of sugar, or Truvia. Secure the lid, and shake until the mixture is nice and foamy on top.

Step Five:

Pour into a large glass. ENJOY. YOU ARE WELCOME :)

Easy, Delicious Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe

Thu, 13 Dec 2012 21:26:00 -0500

I am continually amazed that I am able to bake without completely flopping. My cakes aren’t Cake Boss material or anything, but, dayum! I can make some good cupcake, sweet breads and now FUDGE!

I found this amazing, super easy recipe, and I want to share it with you (also, so I can pin it!)

INGREDIENTS:

Cooking Spray

3 cups sugar

1/2 cup butter

2/3 cup Evaporated Milk (I like Carnation)

1 2/3 cups Creamy Peanut Butter (I LOVE Jif)

1 (7 oz.) jar marshmallow creme (Jet-Puffed is great!)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS:

1. LINE 13 x 9-inch pan (I use a glass Pyrex dish) with aluminum foil; spray with no-stick cooking spray. The aluminum foil just makes it easy to pull out of the pan.

2. COMBINE sugar, butter and milk in large saucepan, stirring constantly on medium heat, until mixture comes to a boil. I had it on “6” and then I had to reduce to 1 or 2 on my oven to educe heat and simmer 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.

3. ADD peanut butter. Stir until well blended. Add marshmallow creme and vanilla. Beat until well blended. I don’t use a blender, I just use my muscles! It should be super creamy and fluffy. Spread in prepared pan. Cool. It will be incredibly hard to resist, but you must! If you cut it ahead of time, it won’t be set. It should be cooled for an hour or two. I like to make a shortcut, and put it on my front porch in the winter. :) Cut into candy-sized pieces and SERVE TO THOSE YOU LOVE!

YOU’RE WELCOME!

I'm Back [briefly]

Fri, 06 Jul 2012 20:46:22 -0400

I haven’t updated my tumblr in a long, long, long time.

A few things have happened:

1) I got a rabbit. I love him. His name is Gryffindor. And yes, that Gryffindor.

2) I’m 26. I’m officially in my “late twenties.” Gross.

3) I still have this (and will always), and it’s worse than ever.

4) Still at the same job. I still love it.

I didn’t start this blog to really “chat” about my life, but I did want to share fun things I found on the internet. So, keep checking, and I’ll be posting real soon!

Hilarious.
