To start -- I wouldn't do the tea AND the SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) in the morning (do one or the other). Personally, I can't drink a quart of salt water. I've done it (this is my 2nd cleanse) and all I get is a distended stomach, raised blood pressure, and NO eliminations. However, there are folks here who swear by it -- so you have to figure out which route works best for you. I do Smooth Move tea right before bed and upon rising (and eliminate 3-5 times a day).
If you like the tea cool - then you can drink it that way I guess ;)
