The Best Iced Tea

This is a most refreshing Tracy family secret, perfected over the years. We are a tea-drinking family and when it gets too hot for Earl Grey, we make the switch to our summer staple. We have a large covered jug with a built-in, dedicated stirring spoon, as the lemon pulp needs a quick stir before each pour. Wonderfully thirst quenching on a hot summer day!

For the tea: Place 4 Tetley orange pekoe teabags in a large teapot. Pour 1.5 litres of boiling water into the teapot, and allow to steep for 6 - 8 hours (or overnight or until you get around to the next step).

In a large jug, mix one 355 ml can Minute Maid frozen lemonaide concentrate and three cans cold water (NOT four cans of water as it says on the label!). Add the steeped tea to the lemonaide, stir, refridgerate and enjoy.

Note: I don't usually do the brand-name thing, but in this case, we have tried cheap brands and they just don't cut it.
