It Came From the Archives! Episode 5: Iced Tea

This show originally aired on May 26th of 2009. With the intense Summer heat still beating down on us, what better time then to make some refreshing iced tea! In this episode we read some listener email and talk about why sun tea may not be the safest way to brew tea. We then go to the tasting room where we will be trying four different teas (Young Hyson Green Tea, Darjeeling, China Black Tea and Keemun) in two different ways; hot and over ice. If you have any ideas for future episodes or just have a question, you can always send us an email to AboutBeverages@q.com.
