This light, summertime drink is the perfect thing to keep you feeling cool and refreshed on a hot summer day. Black tea has many health benefits and gives you a bit of a caffeine kick at the same time. The iced tea is slightly sweet, but it is sweetened with honey, making it an all natural drink.

You can also use other types of tea like green or white tea.
