Neighborhood House Grand Opening Special a portion of our proceeds will go to the preservation of Neighborhood House.
Christ Church's Neighborhood House, just around the corner from our Church Street location, was built in 1916 as a Settlement House to take care of the poor people (mostly Russian and Irish immigrants) in Old City. Following a major renovation project, Neighborhood House is re-opening as a community center which includes:
A theatre on the third floor which can be rented by emerging dance, theatre and music companies
Spaces for community meetings or receptions

Equipment and Ingredients:
2, one-quart Glass containers
Strainer
Two heaping tablespoons of Gunpowder Green Tea or OCC’s Herbal Blend.
Honey to taste
Method:
Add Two tablespoons of Gunpowder Green Tea or OCC’s Herbal Blend to a one-quart jar or pitcher of cold water. Leave this container on a sunny windowsill for four to five hours. When the teas have brewed to a translucent brew stir in honey until it is a sweet as you like it. The lingering warmth of the sun should help the honey dissolve quickly in the tea. When the honey is dissolved and the tea is sweet enough for you, simply pour the tea through a strainer and into a second container. Refrigerate and serve over ice.
Alternative:
Add crushed mint leaves to the tea as it steeps.
Add sugar instead of honey for a more neutral sweetness.
Add lemon, lime or orange slices
