Sshhh ... don't let the Brits know you're making iced tea. They think it's a sacriledge, on a par with dissing the Queen. But I confess I used to indulge in the privacy of my own home. On sunny summer days, I make "sun tea." Get a large clear glass jar or bottle, fill it with cold water and drop in a few tea bags. Place the jar/bottle in a sunny patch and let it sit for a few hours. The sun does the rest. The result (at least, my result has always been) a clear, crisp-tasting beverage. We do this in California all the time. It's a bit time consuming, but worth the wait.
