That is a great first step. I did that with iced tea a few years ago. Much cheaper and way less sugary and much flavoury and now I can't really stand the store stuff anymore.

I will do tea in the summer, too. But I will buy a really nice flavour for that. No supermarket tea. But the apple-tea you can buy at Aldi was always a great iced tea. :)

Anyways. Yes. Much better alternative for coffee and tea alike. :D

I usually use black tea and fresh lemon. Make the tea in the morning when I come to the office, let it cool down the entire day, add lemon before leaving and put it in the fridge.

With fruit tea and herbal tea I usually don't do anything to it anymore and just let it cool down in the summer, but drink it the same way as in winter preparationwise.

And very easy if you pre-prepare the cold coffee and/or tea. :)

It is just very simple when you have a premade bottle of strong coffee and only have to add milk and ice. I will definitely try blending my own ice cubes. I hope our blender is up to that challenge. :)
