Carrot-and-Apple Juice
Three-Herb Iced Tea
This nonalcoholic iced tea is made with fresh mint, basil and a simple syrup infused with chamomile flowers. It is as cool and refreshing as an air-conditioned subway car after a long wait on the steamy platform.
Sweet or Salty Lemonade
Sweetened, this is a classic all-American beverage for a hot summer's day. But add salt and it becomes a savory treat, much like the limeades served in the Middle East, India or Thailand. With or without salt, this recipe delivers. The proportions of water to juice, sugar and salt are completely a matter of taste, so adjust the recipe as you like. It works equally well with limes as it does with lemons.
Viva! Health Tonic
Robert A. Barnett, author of ''Tonics, More Than 100 Recipes That Improve the Body and the Mind,'' defines a tonic as a food, an herb or a thought that improves your well-being. In traditional Chinese medicine, tonics are used to enhance immunity, with specific herbs prescribed for specific problems. In Europe, tonics are given to stimulate digestion, while here in the West, Barnett says, we think of them as anything that you put in your mouth that makes you feel better.

Coconut Ginger Tea With Lime, Honey and Turmeric
I love the fair trade teas produced by Zhena’s Gypsy Tea, especially her Coconut Chai. Inspired by the perfume of coconut in that tea, I infused shredded coconut and ginger and added a little fresh lime juice, honey and a smidgeon of turmeric. The idea of making a turmeric and honey paste comes from Heidi Swanson’s 101cookbooks.com.
