The Best Automatic Iced Tea Maker

Tweet

I did a lot of research before deciding which iced tea maker to buy. What sold me on the Hamilton Beach appliance was twofold: 1. The water drips into the center of the pitcher, so the nice white surface of the appliance never gets stained, and no spilled tea ends up on the counter top either. 2. The oval pitcher stores right on top of the appliance or in the door or the refrigerator, so the design is really space-saving. I am so happy with this appliance that I wanted to share what I learned in case anyone else is about to buy a new tea maker. Even though we drink a lot of red tea, I wasn't sure the tea maker was be a big improvement over what we were already doing, but it sure is. This is an appliance I would not want to have to do without. The other concern we had was that it might make the tea too weak, but we solved that problem by using frozen tea instead of ice cubes to chill each fresh batch.
