If you’ve ever visited Greece in the summer you will probably know how hot it can get here. While going through one of our usual “over 35 degrees Celsius” weeks I discovered a very refreshing drink, Lipton’s lemon flavored Green Ice Tea. It was a very convenient discovery as I am currently trying to reduce my coffee and coke intake, without lowering my caffeine intake too much to cause withdrawal symptoms. However, Lipton’s product is sadly packed with preservatives, loads of sugar and taste enhancers. Not to mention that it costs €1.50 per 0.5 liter bottle.

As you know, when it’s hot, it helps if you eat light foods. Add to that the fact that we are both trying to lose some excess weight, and you will have two great reasons for eating lightly. So, last night we made a delicious open sandwich, which also enabled us to celebrate our little herb garden, as this was the first time we actually used one of the plants. It turned out great and it also adheres to the rules of Mediterranean diet, which is well-known for its health benefits.
