I steeped the whole amount of water so it would be nice and strong and halved the sugar - it had a nice flavor with the almond in it!Reply

Easy method for making iced tea without having to wait hours for it to cool. The almond and vanilla by themselves would have worked better for me, though. Too much lemon, which clashed a bit with the vanilla. I will make this again and leave out the lemon.Reply

I'm not leaving any stars, but it's only because I was making half of the recipe, but when I got to the end, I put in the full amount of water so it was very watered down and I really couldn't tell if I liked it or not. Will make this again and update my review with stars. Made for Zaar Stars.Reply
