Happy Iced Tea Day!

Hey readers,

Cool off today by drinking some iced tea and check out some fun facts:

• Like it’s name, it is cold tea served with ice and it can be sweetened too
• It’s been around for a while. Iced tea became popular at the World’s Fair in St. Louis in 1904. That’s a long time ago!

How to make:

4. Use yogurt or icing to glue on the chocolate chip or raisin eyes.
5. Add a breadstick for a perch.

Enjoy!
