As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, this year I’m just not ready for summer to end. I’m not sure if it’s the fact that my husband and I were sick for almost an entire month of it, or what.

I find myself wanting to soak up the last days of summer by spending as much time as possible doing outdoor activities. And it wouldn’t hurt if we enjoyed this strawberry lemonade iced tea pie again!

One of the outdoor activities that occurs on almost a daily basis in the summer is grilling. It’s just so easy to throw together an easy meal on the grill. We don’t have to take a lot of time for meal prep after work, and while the food is cooking, we can take the time to reconnect and talk about the day.

We can make something simple that’s still flavorful and satisfying. It just the way summer meals end up around here.

And along with our grilled meal, you’ll find iced tea. Sometimes it’s sweetened, sometimes it’s plain (I am from the north after all!), and sometimes it’s flavored. It’s just the perfect accompaniment to summer meals.

It’s even easier with Lipton’s Cold Brew iced tea. Just pour cool water over a couple of tea bags and allow it to steep for 5 minutes. No boiling water needed!

Perfect for spontaneous gatherings with family and friends when you want to serve something other than water! It’s also great for when you want to brew some up for dessert.

Yes, dessert. I was in the mood for a no bake pie the other day to go with our grilled meal, and the first thing that popped into my head was a traditional lemonade pie. Easy, cool, and refreshing. But why not switch it up a bit and turn a classic lemonade iced tea into a pie?!

Fresh lemon juice and zest combine with Lipton cold brew tea to create the classic combo, and swirls of fresh strawberry puree top it off for a bright, summery pie perfect for your next bbq!
