LiptonSouthern Sweet Tea Iced Tea Drink Mix 22 Family Size Tea Bags (Pack of 4)

I purchased two of these 48 packs as I love iced tea. Especially as I am working from home, this is a great value.The good:Cheap - These are currently sold at less than three dollars. So this teabag costs costs under ten cents for a gallon.Taste - These iced teas taste just like the 'fresh brewed' ones at the iced teaEasy - No more dumping dozens of bags of iced tea. It's just a single bag.The bad:Flavor - I found the flavor to be a bit too weak. So I came up with a modified technique and reduced the water to 3/4 of gallon for a flavor that was good. Even so, it still costs me less than a dime for a tea bag per gallon.Ugly:The tea bag has three problems.- The tea bag floats to the top- Teas get stuck on the walls- Tea bag easily breaks.If the teas aren't sticking to the top, I'd just ignore it. And because the tea bag traps the air, it float to the top so the tea and the teas stuck to the top doesn't seep. And when I push the tea bag down, one of the seams break.I tried to just pour the tea bag into the tea bag. But that created two problems. I still had pieces of tea in my iced tea (which I didn't want), and I had to fish the tea bag out. I wash the container once a week and I make multiple batches. Fishing the tea bag out doesn't work for me. My solution was to use a large french press. I push the tea bag down, with a spoon, knowing it will break. Then I use the french press to filter out the tea.With everything above in mind, here is how I make my iced tea.Equipment: Kettle, spoon, french press, a large container.I had an unused large zero water container with a spigot (I removed the filter) as I installed reverse osmosis filter on my sink. So my iced tea sits in my fridge all day ready to go.I make my iced tea at night. When I wake up, I have a cold iced tea waiting for me!1. Start boiling 32 ounces of water2. While the water is boiling, put half a gallon (64 ounces) of water, or 48 ounces for stronger tea, into the container. This is to protect your container from thermal shock.3. When the water is ready, put one tea bag into the french press, then pour 32 ounces of hot water. If the tea bag balloons and you can not get your water in, don't worry.4. Push the tea bag down. Don't worry if the tea bag breaks, which it probably will. Add more water as necessary.5. After 10 minutes, press the french press (to filter the tea) and pour the hot tea into the container.6. Pour 32 ounces, or 24 ounces for stronger team, of cold/room temperature water into the french press.7. After 10 minutes, pour the room temperature tea into the container.8. Put the container back into the fridge and let it sit overnight, or for 12 hours, to cool it down.My zero water container holds 20 cups. But with the filter removed, it probably holds closer to 1.5 gallon. When my container gets low, I just add more. Once a week, I clean the container to avoid bacteria growth.I hope this help!

It's just decent tea. What else do you need? These are "quart sized" tea bags; you need 3 for a gallon (despite there being "4 quarts in a gallon"). Pretty sure these are all orange pekoe tea from Ceylon, which is the typical Lipton tea (it's the tea most people know best). Nothing fancy. Just good. Minimal amount of plastic in the packaging (just enough to wrap the box). Very little paper waste as well.

I love these teabags. I am constantly making diet iced tea and these save me the guess work of how much sweetener to add. (Plus I'm sick of wiping up all the residue of sweetener all over the counter.) I will caution you that they make a VERY sweet tea. I use 3 of them for a half gallon, then add a few regular-sized normal tea bags. (This isn't a drawback as it saves money. I don't go through these as fast.)

Growing up my grandmother made sun tea. Best memory of my grandmother… to this day I carry on that special time I had as a child making sun tea, Lipton has always been our choice of sun tea. Thank you grandma!! Love you and miss you.

Was hard to find for a while. Glad to find it here.

I use this tea in a drip brewer and it works very well. I have never found a better tasting tea than what Lipton makes and this one is always fresh and tasteful.

Best tea ever.

Just wish it was still available

I was so happy I could order iced tea bags. It’s just not the same trying to make iced tea from regular hot tea bags. We use this brand when we are in the US. So happy I could order it and delivered to Canada. I have been enjoying it ever since.

Great Product! Item and quantity shipped as prescribed. Thank You

Great flavour and work well with my Mr Brew iced tea maker.

Usually iced tea tea bags are not available in Canada. I first saw them in Pennsylvania when visiting my son but they were not available here. So I was very happy to get amAmazon email to say could order product in Canada. Taste is good not bitter. I also find no need to add sugar or artificial sweeteners. I love my iced tea. The canned diet products has become very expensive over past 2 years and no name products have too much lemon for my liking I brewed it the same day ( very quick delivery btw) I received. The only issue was to find a container big enough to hold a gallon but I figured out a strategy. It’s so incredibly cheaper to make this wa6. I have pretty much drank the gallon over past 2 weeks even though I drink much more in summertimeIt’s also decaf which is great
