Bumping it up a few notches for making a nice iced tea. (Not, alas, fantastic enough to make me feel better about having shattered the top of my favorite glass teapot in steeping it.)
Iced, with a bit of honey during the brewing and a bit of sugar cooled, it gives a mint front with a rose hip kicker. And it’s very very pink. This would probably be a good party drink!

It was tragic! Although not as tragic as it could have been, given that neither dropped the pot itself nor stepped on the broken glass (of course I was barefoot — does glass ever break when I’m in shoes?).
I made tea in shorts this summer and spilled boiling water on my leg (I’m in a wheelchair so the sitting position makes my legs a great target). I still have the scar.
Oh no! FataliTEA!

Eep! Tea is a dangerous sport sometimes, isn’t it?
