Unsweetened iced tea, 1 ounce fruit-flavored liqueur, 1 tablespoon simple syrup, and lemon slices. Add lots of ice!  I used Paw Paw liqueur from Vitae Distillery in Charlottesville, Virginia, because I am once again promoting locally-made products.

This drink’s needed here in Virginia, since our governor has now closed all schools until June 10, which is a few days after summer break was originally supposed to start.  In other words, I will not be reporting to my job at the high school until the fall.

Cheers to the teachers out there, who now have to prepare virtual-learning plans.  Your summer break is still weeks away, isn’t it?  And although I often heard many of you complaining about the (pre-quarantine) job, I know you would still rather be in the classroom than stuck at home in front of a computer screen. I admire you all greatly.
