Cold-Brew Iced Tea
Grace Elkus
Instead of breaking out the tea kettle in steamy summer months, brew tea bags in cold water for a naturally sweet (and less-acidic) beverage. Sip the tea straight from the jar, or screw on the lid and pack ‘em up for a picnic.
How to Make It
Step 1
Place the teabags in 4 (12-oz) Mason jars with lids. (You should have 2 tea bags per jar.) Pour 1½ cups of cold water into each jar. Seal the jars with the lids and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours, or overnight.
Step 2
Remove the tea bags and add two lemon slices and ice to each jar. Or, experiment with different flavors, such as Ginger and Honey, Peach and Mint, Pomegranate and Lime, or Watermelon and Basil.

Just a quick addition - if you do, however, choose to make hot tea and want honey in it - don`t add the honey to the hot tea.
At temperatures above 43 degrees Celsius honey will lose all its health benefits and you're left with just the sugar.
