Iced Tea Gelato, and more Summer Recipes!

Iced Tea Gelato, and more Summer Recipes!

The other day I  had an inspiration… We have a mint plant that is growing like crazy, and I adore a little sprig of mint in my Iced Tea in the Summer time.  So a recipe creation was in order… What about gelato, inspired by the flavors of good ol Southern iced tea?  The experiment was quite a success – although next time I think I’ll add a bit of lemon zest to the mix to really capture a perfect iced tea.  Go get the recipe over at Foodwhirl: Southern Mint Iced Tea Gelato.
