best tasting iced tea

I personally would think that a flavored iced tea would sell better than an unflavored iced tea. I’d much rather grab a raspberry iced tea than something harsh like a flat black tea. I feel like if you want to have tea hold some sort of chance against other iced drinks, I would go for a flavored tea. Also, maybe try to stick to something that brews pink/red. More appealing to the general crowd than a black tea.

Saying that, I think some good options would be:

p.s. if you get loose leaf tea, you should put some on display ;)

If you’re making it in bulk and storing it in the fridge, add a pinch of baking soda for every 1/2 gallon (2 litres) of tea, especially if the tea isn’t designed for iced tea. If you make it unsweetened, offer lemon, sugar syrup, mint leaves, berries, other citrus slices as you have them.

The type of tea used depends completely on personal taste. I really like Harney and Sons organic iced black tea, but that might be too expensive to spring on your boss. :) No baking soda needed with that one. It’s so delicious brewed as per the instructions.

White Lion sells iced tea in bulk, but it may be more than your restaurant wants to spend. Two Leaf and Mighty Leaf are more moderate options, and Republic of Tea is more budget friendly.

I also echo the option of offering some flavored teas such as passionfruit, peach or raspberry, something that won’t overload the food flavor. They could also consider a green tea which many people like, maybe with a mint or tropical fruit flavor, especially in summer.

I agree with the flavored tea, thanks for everyone’s suggestions!

The Most delicious iced tea is David’s Tea “Hot Lips”
It’s spicy and a bit sweet, so good!

Also, I’m not a fan of Teavana, but they do make some teas that make fantastic iced tea. My favorite is “Apple Lemon Pomegranate”
and "Strawberry Lemonade is seriously good too.

I live in a super hot area in the summer, and I live off of Iced Teas.
Any body else have some good suggestions?
