Ice tea is very popular in my city. Because the weather is very hot. In a hot day, drinking an ice tea glass will make you feel very comfortable and fresh. Yesterday is Sunday. I had much free time. So, I made ice tea. I used green tea with boiling water. Then allowed to cool and putting ice on it. It's cool and delicious ! Everyone liked it ! I drank it whole day. I'm sure that we should drink ice tea on morning. Because I drank it at noon yesterday. So, I can't sleep last night! It's bad!

It's great if we enjoy a glass of iced tea in a hot day. I can drink it whole day if I don't work in cool room. And I can't sleep on night, of course :(

It is not warm enough here for iced tea. I drink more water than tea anyway. Next time you should try decaf and then maybe you would be able to sleep.

Hot tea is better for you in this situation. It's very hot here, so I like iced tea. You shouldn't drink tea at night in order that you can sleep, of course.

I love ice tea during summer time, it really is very refreshing. I don't drink the green tea though, it's not really my type. I'm cool with the ice tea like the nestea thing and adding more ice..hmmm so refreshing! I drink it even during night time..

I like green tea which is dried from fresh tea leaves. I only drink on morning or noon before 3PM. I can't drink it on night, if not, I won't sleep.

From my understanding, most of the teas in the market contains caffeine which will awake us and we are advised for not drinking tea during the night. I also realize that most of the teas in the market contains artificial color which is not good to our health especially to our kidneys. In Malaysia, only the brand Lipton has clarified clearly that it's products have no preservation, but with natural coloring. This brand has become my favorite brand too. Anyhow, you can use the bleach to mix with a small volume of any beverage as tea in a glass container. After a while, if the color of the beverage changes to transparent or the color retreats, this color must be the artificial color. Natural color has no response to bleach. At night, it is good to drink fresh milk. If you drink a warm milk, it will help you a lot to fall asleep.

Thank you very much for your sharing. I never think about artificial color in green tea! It's dangerous! I like green Vietnam tea. It's smell and delicious! Warm milk is good for our sleeping! I agree.

I mostly used to have ice tea at afternoon. I find very hotter now a days and this is the reason why I shifted my time to afternoon. Afternoon is the time we feel very hot and I sued to have my ice team during afternoon and having them helps me to get rid from heating my body.

I see. Hot weather make us feel uncomfortable. So, a glass of iced tea can make us more refresh.

tea never much bothered me until the roomie started needing de-caf tea, and the new roomie drinks de-caf too, but that's okay, I try to stop drinking caffeine around 4-5 in the afternoon We keep a big, like 3-4 gallon jug of tea in the fridge, we generally use about half plain de-caf and then half some flavor, mint or Constant Comment (de-caf) so it has a nice flavor, besides the tea flavor...

Yes, we shouldn't drink tea after 3PM, if not we can't sleep. It's better for us if we keep tea water in fridge for everyday. We can drink whenever we like.

It is good that you prepared the ice tea. If I drink the commercially prepared ice tea or use the powder to prepare it, I end up having a bloated stomach the following morning. I rarely drink ice tea nowadays.

I also like ice tea, sometimes I add lime juice to add a little fresh flavor . I often make my own ice tea rather than buying outside. Ice is the right choice for hot air, as it is in my place currently I feel like making my own now
