Tips: Preparing Beverages

  • to add flavor to tea, dissolve old fashioned lemon drops or hard mint candies in tea
  • always chill juices or sodas before adding them to beverage recipe
  • calorie-free club soda adds sparkle to iced fruit juies and reduces calorie per portion
  • to cool your punc, float an ice ring made from the punch rather than using ice cubes...it's more decorative and it doesn't dilute the punch
  • place fresh or dried mint in the bottom of a cup of hot chocolate for a cool and refreshing taste
  • never boil coffee, it brings out acids that cause a bitter taste
  • always use cold water for electric drip coffee makers
