It's as versatile as a black dress. - More Herb Recipes - - More Paprika Recipes - - More Quick Recipes - 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves 1 teaspoon fresh oregano leaves 2 teaspoons sweet paprika 2 medium cloves of garlic, smashed into a paste 1 well-crumbled bay leaf pinch of red pepper flakes 1/4 teaspoon + fine grain sea salt 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice Gently warm the olive oil over medium-low heat in a skillet or pan, until it is just hot.

It's the Life: Passion Fruit & Lemon Tea Have you had the passion tea lemonade at Starbucks? It's fantastic. Really fantastic. I searched on-line for passion tea and found that this Tazo tea is used and sold by Starbucks! Each box of tea comes with 20 tea bags. Once your water boils, pour it over your tea bags. Once it is finished steeping, use one spoon to scoop out one bag at a time. Since the water is still hot, I use a second spoon to squeeze out more flavor from each bag before I toss them. It's such a nice color, and it smells delicious! While you wait, make yourself a nice sandwich. In order to get the right measurements, I used a starbucks cup. When you buy this drink at the store, they pump their "classic syrup" into the drink. This next part isn't necessary, but they do it at the store and it makes you feel fancy. Pour your tea mixture over your ice. Put the lid on and shake it like crazy! Foamy deliciousness! Pour it back into your cup and try to pace yourself when drinking! Your Welcome.
