Refreshing Iced Green Tea

"This recipe is more about the method than the ingredients. If you don't already like green tea, this will not change your mind! I found it on several different websites including wikihow, but I am not sure where it originally came from. I use "London Fruit&Herb Company-Green Tea and Raspberry" for my tea. *Note prep time does not include chilling time."

  1. I am enjoying this refreshing green iced tea right now! I have always seeped my tea bags in hot water, so I wasn't sure how well this would work. It worked brilliantly! No more heating up water! I used a bit of stevia in my glass to sweeten it just a tad. I love that this is so healthy, too. Thank you!

I am learning to cook through Recipezaar! I am not a natural in the kitchen so I really appreciate all the recipes and reviews that people post here! I also won't post any reviews that have less then three stars. I figure if someone liked the recipe enough to post it then it might be just my tastes. My favourite cookbooks are "The Vegetarian 5 Ingredient Gourmet", and "Company's Coming Diabetic Cooking". They both have lots of great recipes even though I am not a vegetarian or diabetic. <img src="http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/rr266/Acadia/Banners/HolidayCardSwapBannerP-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/my3chefs2009final-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v51/tiggrr34/?action=view&current=HolidayOrnamentSwapTag2c-1-1-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v51/tiggrr34/HolidayOrnamentSwapTag2c-1-1-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
