Question

[milady1844]

What's the best type of tea to make sun tea/iced tea with? It's been ages since I've made any, and I can't for the life of me remember what I used to use. So I'm totally open to suggestions. What d'y'all think?

Mix or bagged tea?

[milady1844]

I used to use bagged, cause more often than not I'd make sun tea, cause I'm lazy. ;-) But if you know of a killer mix, I'm all ears!

Lipton for either seems to be best.

[milady1844]

Huh. So the classic really does live up to it's name? ;-) Thanks! I'll pick some up next time I'm at the store.

I'm a big fan of darjeeling, myself. :)

[milady1844]

Oooooh. It's been ages & ages since I've had darjeeling! Thanks!

BTW, was very sorry to hear about your sun tea bottle & your foot. Though, I must say your reaction was about on par w/what I've done in similar situations. Silly hormones. ;-)

Thanks. :) But switching to using old peanut butter jars is actually working better for me! Now I don't have to lug around that huge sun tea jar (for which there really is no room in my fridge right now), and I also don't have the temptation of an entire gallon of ice tea in my fridge at once. The peanut butter jar is about representative of how much caffeine I should have in a day now that I'm pregnant, so I can't really overdo it. :) Plus it only takes one tea bag at a time, so I can experiment with different kinds of tea without using up eight tea bags at once.

Good Earth's Original Sweet and Spicy Herb tea is the best that I've had.
