So this summer I started making my own iced tea after getting a little bored with drinking ice cold water all day. I am not a big fan of juice or sugary drinks cause they always make me so thirsty! So I stick to beloved tap water with ice. But now I have something more interesting…and it has some sometimes much needed caffeine in it, or it can have none!

Anyhow, I finally decided to try to make my own iced tea. I knew it had to be a piece of cake, but I googled it anyways. Haha. The only rule of thumb to note is not to fill the glass with any more hot water than you need, otherwise it takes too long to cool down. I use either Earl Grey, mint tea (with lemon flavor is good!) or jasmine pearl.

Check out my step by step instructions.
