Iced tea is the easiest way to drink more tea in warm weather, and it is far better made from real leaf than from a sugary bottle. The rule is simple: brew it stronger than you would hot, because ice dilutes it, and lean towards clean, bright or fruit forward teas that stay refreshing cold rather than turning flat. Green, fruit, hibiscus and rooibos teas all shine over ice; robust black works if brewed strong and not stewed. Cold steeping overnight is gentler and less bitter than hot then chilled, and the dedicated method is in the cold brew recipes. Every recipe linked below already lives in the recipe tab of the product it points to, written by our curator; this page just gathers the ones that suit a cold glass. For the principle behind why cold extraction tastes smoother, see how to brew green tea and the water temperature guide; for the wider context, the iced tea guide and best tea for summer.
