Fresh Mug Brewed Iced Tea - Yum!

[missycj96]

Hi - (I had posted this on restaurant board but realize all the mug info is here)

I love fresh brewed ice tea. This August I perfected refill mug brewed fresh ice tea. You have to try this - adjust it as you like but this is great and I had to share.

At the mug fill station, I take two tea bags and put them in the mug with the strings sticking out. I put in 2 splenda and a few inches of hot water. I swish the tea bags and wait just a couple of seconds. Then I fill the mug up the rest of the way with as much ice as fits and put the lid on and I'm done. After a few minutes the ice melts somewhat and I pull the tea bags out. Voila! mug brewed fresh ice tea. I found this so refreshing. Give it a try.

(I love the english breakfast - but also made earl grey, and even mint - Beach Club even had a great Darjeeling).

Enjoy!

I used to do that all the time when I was teaching. I love fresh brewed tea and I dont drink coffee so I'd use the water dispenser on the coffee machine to brew my tea!

Do this also as really dislike WDW new tea in dispensers they put in three years ago. so make my own as well. like earl grey but the way it processed raises my blood pressure so I stick to the lipton...

Wonderful idea....I will have to try it on my next trip. We have been going in January the past 4 years and it has actually been cool enough in evening to do hot tea, but this would be wonderful for during the day!
