When Summer Feels a Bit Too Intense
Delhi’s heat… frankly, some days it seems the sun has a personal vendetta against us all. By midday even stepping onto the balcony feels like a penalty. And here comes iced tea as a lifesaver for me.
And on those kinds of days, nothing is better than a cool glass of iced tea. Straightforward relaxing and somehow instantly calming – like a brief escape from the warmth.
How I Became Fond of This Chilled Beverage Magic
I still recall the first instance I tasted iced tea. It was years ago at a cafe near my university. My companion insisted I sample it because “You always stick to boring hot tea man.“
I took one taste – and wow. That subtle sweetness that bright citrus note… it really stuck with me.
Since then, every summer I have developed this routine: pour some cold tea put my feet up and just take a moment to relax. Even five quiet minutes with a frosty drink can instantly improve your whole disposition.
Flavored Iced Tea for My Shifting Desires
Nowadays life moves so quickly that even selecting a drink becomes a mini-process. Sometimes I am in the mood for peach-flavored iced tea other times lemon or perhaps that straightforward classic taste.
Truthfully flavored iced tea feels like a small guilt-free indulgence you grant yourself.
Last week after a long session of working from home I was completely worn out. I opened the refrigerator and there it was – my mint iced tea waiting like a little reward. I sat on the floor by the window (don’t ask why) took a sip and actually said aloud “This is precisely what I required.“
Procuring Iced Tea Via the Web Has Become My New Relaxed Habit
Previously, I used to postpone buying my preferred beverages until the weekends, but now convenience is key – the positive kind.
Whenever my supply runs low, I simply purchase iced tea online. Convenient, fast, no battling the heat, no waiting in queues.
And recently, I’ve started ordering from Aap Ka Bazar, as they feature a decent selection of cold drinks. They don’t stock produce, dairy, or bread – but honestly, for most other things, they have you covered. Moreover, their online ordering has the feel of that familiar local shop convenience, but modernized.
Cold Tea During Work Breaks… It Has a Unique Appeal
On work days the 4 pm energy dip is very noticeable. You gaze at the monitor your mind is drifting off and all you crave is something revitalizing.
A colleague brings a flask of homemade iced tea daily and we all secretly share tastes. It’s evolved into our unspoken signal for “we are exhausted but managing.”
Sometimes I carry a pre-made tea bottle too. It’s lighter than iced coffee and somehow offers a small lift without making you feel sluggish.
Concluding the Day With a Cool Sip
I won’t deny it – I still adore my hot chai, particularly when it rains. But summers? They belong to iced tea.
It’s invigorating, it’s effortless, and honestly, it just makes daily life seem a touch brighter.
So if you haven’t explored the flavored variations, give them a try. Sample peach, lemon, mint – whatever suits your mood today. And if you’re too weary to venture out, just arrange for it online and enjoy your chilled respite at home.
