There’s nothing better than a glass pitcher of iced tea in the summer months, and it’s so simple to make that there’s no reason not to keep a pitcher in the refrigerator at all times. You can make iced tea with all varieties of tea, though some seem to taste better cold. For example, raspberry, lemon, and peach teas are summer favorites amongst iced teas. While it’s possible to use green, black, and mint tea for iced tea, these varieties tend not to capture the same flavor when iced. You’ll need to adjust the amount of teabags used depending on the size of the picture. For two liters, 5-6 tea bags are appropriate, for one liter, 2-3 tea bags will work well. You might also want to add sugar, but be sure to stir the sugar in and continue to taste the tea; there’s nothing worse than a tea that is ruined because it is too sweet.

Keep adding crushed ice to the tea for the best taste, and remember not to add too much ice otherwise it will dilute the flavor of the tea.
