0:00
- Hey friends are y'all thirsty for something really tasty.
0:05
Are you tired of sweet tea?
0:07
No, I don't think we ever get tired of sweet tea, do we?
0:10
Or even unsweet tea or sodas or water.
0:14
Well, I wanna share with y'all this easy, easy,
0:18
easy recipe that'll just be a change of pace for you,
0:24
especially in this heat,
0:25
Eddie and I just walked out and walked down
0:29
to the dock old ways and I'm sopping wet.
0:32
Y'all it's like stepping into a crab pot.
0:37
Isn't it, Teresa, when you walk out there?
0:44
What y'all talking 'bout?
0:47
- Y'all tell me, is it a surprise?
0:51
I think Eddie wants a pretty glass.
0:55
Is that what you were asking for?
0:57
- [Eddie] Yes. - A pretty glass.
0:59
Okay, well let's get started
1:01
cause I told y'all how simple it is.
1:04
We have got two cups of frozen pitted cherries.
1:11
And you know, cherries are in season now
1:14
so you actually could use fresh.
1:18
And we're gonna add one cup of sugar.
1:23
All right that's a half a cup.
1:40
and another half a cup.
1:42
And we're gonna add, that's one cup of fresh lemon juice.
1:49
- [Theresa] Yes ma'am.
1:50
- I didn't see you squeezing that up, Theresa--
1:53
- [Theresa] I promise you, I did.
1:54
- I know I'm saying, I believe you.(laughing)
1:58
I believe you, but you know, that's hard work.
2:01
Look what I just did.
2:07
You know, my eyes, Theresa, I've lost my depth perception.
2:15
- Yeah, So I just wasted some of that wonderful
2:21
lemon juice that you worked hard to get.
2:25
- [Theresa] Look at this, I have just a teeny bit left
2:27
in here that you can use. - Oh, yeah, yeah,
2:28
I'll take it.(laughing)
2:33
I probably spilled a little bit more than that, but.
2:38
Okay, so we're gonna just
2:47
Yeah, I put more sugar.
2:48
(blender motor running)
2:51
what you doing Great-Great?
2:54
She's doing her exercise.
2:55
Don't forget to pick, bend your feet up.
2:58
You know, pick your feet up.
3:02
So Aunt Peggy is under the care of a physical therapist
3:08
So she's doing her mid-afternoon exercise and we're trying
3:14
to bend our legs and walk like this.
3:18
When you get all the riders,
3:20
you got to try to scoodle off, away.
3:23
(blender motor running)
3:35
We wanna make sure that sugar gets dissolved, yall.
3:41
(blender motor running)
4:00
(speech drowned out by blender motor)
4:03
can I have a pretty slice of lemon to go on top?
4:07
And do we have some mint here?
4:11
We got some fresh mint here?
4:15
(speech drowned out by blender motor)
4:29
Alright, so let's see.
4:40
for slushies and milkshakes, things like that.
4:47
Great, so in the pitcher it goes.
4:56
Make sure all that sugar gets in there.
5:01
Now we're gonna add five cups of chilled seltzer water.
5:08
And this holds four cups but we need five cups.
5:16
This is gon' be so refreshing, isn't it, Theresa?
5:19
- [Theresa] I think so.
5:22
- Oh, I love cherries too.
5:25
I buy 'em by the bag and I just keep them on the table.
5:32
Is my stuff in your way?
5:46
Glub, glub, glub, glub, glub.
5:51
Eddie, I know I've got a glass stirrer somewhere.
5:56
- [Eddie] No, I don't.
5:56
- I know I got one somewhere, but I just can't remember.
6:01
Whoa, that's so pretty.
6:09
Eddie got us some mint
6:11
and a piece of lemon.
6:20
You likin' that chick, look, look, Theresa,
6:22
go over here and see what Selvyn's doing.
6:30
Oh, I thought you was just gon' pour 'em in there
6:35
No, he is feastin' over here.
6:39
Now I've got homemade cookies here.
6:41
He is feasting on burnt cookies with a bowl of milk.
6:45
I thought you were gon' put your cookies in there
6:47
and then eat them with a spoon.
6:50
That boy's got a-- - where's the spoon?
6:52
- Huh? - Where's the spoon?
6:53
It's right here in the drawer.
6:55
- Okay, let's do it-- - Let's do it!
7:06
Now don't eat too much or you'll ruin your,
7:11
whatever your next meal is; supper, lunch, breakfast.
7:23
I'm gonna add a little bit more ice to this one.
7:28
Look at that stuff, is it not ever gon' go down?
7:35
To stir like a carbonated soda, stick your finger in it
7:44
and it'll help it go down.
7:46
That doesn't appear to be working, though, does it?
7:54
- Maybe you would pour it in a little bit slower.
7:58
I poured it too fast.
8:01
You can see I'm not used to pouring beer and stuff like that
8:04
cause I know you have to kind of tilt the glass.
8:07
But I didn't, I'm not used to.
8:12
All right, so here we go.
8:15
Aunt Peggy, would you like, would you like (laughing)
8:27
Y'all, I wish y'all had stopped me from just glub, glub,
8:35
- [Aunt Peggy] Here, let me help you out.
8:37
- No liquid yet.(laughing)
8:40
There, I'm gon' pour some off in this glass and let's see.
8:45
Now we've got some liquid coming out.
8:50
Well, this sure is pretty.
8:59
I think I'm gonna switch glasses, Eddie.
9:05
Oh, and this fresh mint, mh, mh, mh.
9:09
Doesn't that look refreshing?
9:11
It looks so refreshing.
9:13
All right, now I'm gonna
9:15
pour out the rest-- - [Theresa] Slow.
9:19
- The rest of our carbonated water.
9:23
- [Eddie] Go have your afternoon drink.
9:28
- [Aunt Peggy] Can you let me go up farther?
9:30
- [Eddie] Yeah, go on in.
9:32
- Alright, we still don't have--
9:33
- I'm moving in on it.
9:35
- Okay, there you go.
9:36
You take that and I'll see if I can get some liquid,
9:43
You know what? I'm gon' try to get
9:44
some of that foam out
9:48
and put it in the rest of the rest of the carbonated water.
9:51
- [Eddie] It's good? refreshing?
9:58
Now, we're gettin' to it.
10:00
- And it's real light.
10:02
It's light in weight. - Yay.
10:08
You know, it's just different.
10:12
We drink so much wine, so much soda, so much tea.
10:16
It's just a nice change, isn't it?
10:18
- [Theresa] Cherries are good for you.
10:20
- They are, aren't they?
10:21
What vitamin do they supply?
10:24
- [Theresa] I knew you were going to try
10:25
to ask me some question like that?
10:27
- I don't know if it's C-- - let's guess, I'm gon' say C.
10:29
- C, that's what I'd say, too.
10:34
- Not that I have any knowledge of anything like,
10:39
That's wonderful, isn't it? - Uh huh.
10:42
- It's been a long time since I tasted this recipe,
10:45
but it is so, so good.
10:47
And you're right, it's light.
10:49
I mean, put a cup of sugar in it but, mh.
10:56
Oh, we've forgotten to say cheers.
11:00
Bon appetit, y'all. (laughing) okay.
11:05
- [Aunt Peggy] Love it.
11:06
- [Paula] I love it.
