Everyone seems to be giving this iced tea rave reviews which makes me a bit puzzled as I didn’t really care for it. Maybe it was the way I steeped it?

I put the pouch in one of those iced tea pitchers from Davids Teas and filled it half full with boiling water. The steep time was only about 2.5 minutes so I don’t think I oversteeped it – but you never know. After that I filled the jug the rest of the way with ice cubes and cold water – nothing too esoteric. I found that i just couldn’t taste much lemonade flavour in the tea – I maybe got a little bit of it when I added some sweetener but that might be because the simple syrup I used was lemon-flavoured.

So what do you guys think? Are my tastebuds just out of wack?

I don’t think your tastebuds are out of whack. This isn’t the traditional “lemonade” tea. It’s supposed to be ‘fair’ or ‘carnival’ inspired – with notes of cotton candy and raspberry and lemonade. Flavors that you’d find at the fair.

The first time I tried it, I cold-brewed it, and I didn’t find any flavor to it at all … so I purchased another one and hot-brewed it – but I hot brew a little differently: I hot brew in 1 quart boiling water for 2 minutes, and then pour that into the pitcher and then resteep the bag in another 1 quart of boiling water for 2 1/2 minutes.

I find that because of the combination of flavors (I think that’s it, anyway) that this tea just doesn’t really work well with the traditional way of half cold water/ice and half steeped tea ‘concentrate.’

Thanks for the tips, I’ll make sure to try it your way next time.

I took this from the GCTTB3 last year when it came around, and I finally felt lik making iced tea out of this today! However, I don’t think I let it steep enough in the hot water, since after I diluted it to its appropriate strength, it tasted somewhat thin and not very lemony. Kind of a grapefruit hint, but that was about it.

Hey, at least it’s a sipdown.
