What brand of tea bags?

 

[Rabid Ram]

I use lipton family sized iced tea
Or
Luzianne family sizes iced tea bags


Edit you can use your fav brand as long as its stated on the box its for iced tea

Also if you dont like sweet tea you can still use this recipe without the sugar for great results.

The baking soda makes for a clear non cloudy tea and removes tge bitterness for smooth drinking experience that will surprise you at first and make you wonder why you drank it any other way
