Is there anything I can do to stop the mold from reoccuring.

Mold on my drink. I recently noticed that when I leave my tea on the counter in a sealed jar that is not air tight that after a week a green mold forms on the top. What is this? Is this normal? Should I refrigerate my tea or can I leave it on the counter.? Am I doing something wrong? The jar is 2 quarts and I wash it between uses with hot soapy water. I pour my boiled tea into the jar to cool and last time just left it on the counter and had been drinking from it till I saw the green mass of mold floating on the top! Reg. Mold on my drink.

Some grayish molds grew on the surface. Then, the surface was scraped to remove the molds. Is it still safe to consume the honey citron tea?

The sugar content of chocolate is too high to allow mold to grow (it decreases the water avaliable to the mold which is essential for their growth). It is more likely if the choclate is old or been allowed to warm and cool, that it is just a whitish layer of chocolate that has crystalised. I would imagine it is not mould on the chocolate.
