Easy Iced Tea

I learned how to do this by reading German tips in one of the recipe booklets I picked up here. It worked and it was great.

Get 4 tea bags and place them in a small bowl of boiled water. Let them sit and brew. Pour the tea concentrate into a pitcher with cold water and Ice cubes and serve!
