I watch a few channels that do the Fire it up Friday list. I enjoy them and I thought I would do one, or try and do one lol. Nothing fancy just a cup of tea outdoors. This Coleman stove is an old stove of my fathers that I found after moving back after close to 30 years. I did sort of restore it to the point it works great. hope you enjoy the video. Today, however, its task was a simple one – to brew a soothing cup of hibiscus tea, a ritual I cherished amidst the tranquil backdrop of the great outdoors.

With a sense of anticipation, I set about preparing the stove for its task, carefully priming it with regular gas. The familiar hiss of the flame as it ignited brought a comforting sense of familiarity, like an old friend greeting me after a long absence. This was not just any tea-making endeavor; it was a moment of solace, a respite from the chaos of everyday life.

As the flames flickered beneath the can (tea pot), the simplicity of nature intertwining with the ingenuity of man, embodied in the humble Coleman stove. With each passing moment, the anticipation grew, the aroma of hibiscus mingling with the faint scent of wood smoke, creating an intoxicating blend that stirred my senses.

As the water began to simmer, I threw a tea bag in the can. With a gentle stir, I allowed the flavors to meld, a symphony of taste and aroma unfolding before me. A testament to the artistry of outdoor cooking and the simple joys it brought.

Finally, as the tea reached its perfect infusion, I removed the pot from the stove, the steam rising in delicate tendrils towards the sky. With a contented sigh, I poured myself a steaming cup, the warmth seeping into my chilled fingers, banishing the last remnants of the winter cold. It was a moment of bliss, a celebration of life's simple pleasures – a cup of tea brewed on an old Coleman stove, amidst the beauty of the great outdoors.
