Hot today, worked out in it most of the day. Just got home, peeled off the clothes and made a nice glass. Enjoying now.

You guys know I hate summer.

Sans the instant part.

I know, but it is quick and easy. Tastes pretty good to me.

Instant iced tea? Have you lost your moral compass?

Sun tea is the only way to go. Three hours in the sun and it's good to go over ice.

This is what I do. I go through a gallon a day in the summer. A couple three bags of Luzianne decaf in a gallon jar on the porch. 1/4 cup of sugar and a few squirts of lemon juice.

Instant will do in a pinch though.

I just buy mine already made and bottled.

Me too. At my advanced age, and with my son and his family living in my house to help care for me, making anything when I can afford to buy passes my sanity check.

Best: Tejava
2nd: Pure Leaf

Tejava for me as well. For a treat if I feel like sweetened I’ll have Snapple peach.

I drank gallons of it growing up since that’s what my mother drank. I still remember the taste.

My main drink forever has been tea, but I wouldn’t think of instant tea now if it is the same as back in the day.

Same here, Lipton instant. Same gallons, but mainly with lunch and dinner.

I was youngest of three brothers and I remember when we all drank LOTS more milk overall. We all got old enough at one point that mom might have as much as three gallons in the fridge at a given time. I would come home from school and mix Hershey's syrup with a remaining half gallon of milk right in the jug. Why dirty a glass for something I'll be done with in three minutes?

But I was still always a little amazed when I saw kids on TV shows drinking milk with dinner. We only chose milk for breakfast.

I use PG Tips,

kettle of water, the electric kind,
put bag in cup
put hot water in cup,
give it a few minutes, and pour over Ice in glass
then add more Ice to get it cold,

delicious,


grew up on Dixie Home, Luzianne or Lipton iced tea,

uro says I should stop, would have less stones, but I like it too much

I make refrigerator tea. It's a 1-gallon jug, and I pair with Luzianne unsweetened Gallon Size tea bags plus one normal size lemon ginger tea bag.
