I made this into iced tea. O M G! It is good that way! My mom and brothers were over for supper tonight. My mom always says she likes iced tea, but what she really means is she likes those presweetened powdered ice tea mixes from Lipton and Nestea. I served this with supper and she was polite, but I could tell she didn’t really care for it. Sometimes I wonder how I came from that woman. Not intending any offense to those who enjoy Lipton powdered tea, but to me those are just so fake that I can’t bear it.
Anyway, I still have several servings of this to drink, so yay!
Preparation
Comments
The iced tea of choice around these parts is pre-mixed Red Diamond tea that comes in a gallon jug and tastes like the plastic. Blecccccch!
Bleccccch is right! I just cannot understand why people drink that stuff! I suppose it’s convenient, and probably a lot cheaper. But I’d rather spend a little more and take the time to set something to steep before bed.
I will—when nothing else is available—drink Gold Peak bottled or soda-machine tea; it’s not tainted with so much citric acid you can’t taste it. Do you have McAlister’s Delis in your part of the world? They’re known for their tea and it also tastes like real tea.
Never heard of McAlisters Delis! I have sometimes gotten a 16 oz bottle of Lipton’s Real Leaf Raspberry tea from the case at work. It’s pre sweetened, and cold, and tasty, but I consider it more of a non carbonated soft drink than tea! I guess I have no business looking down on anyone else’s drink of choice.
