What is the difference between a hot tea & iced tea maker?

Posted by Guest on Mar 21st, 2010 | 2 comments

My mom wants an iced tea maker for her birthday, but we live in Canada. I can only find Hot Tea Makers here, but in the U.S., they sell Iced Tea Makers.

Aren’t they essentially the same? Is there a difference?
Just wanted to add that her birthday is June 9th, so I’d have to drive to the U.S. (which is fine because I’m only an hour from the border). Shipping is not an option.

How can I make green tea taste good?

I want to drink Green tea because it has so many health benefits. I have never drank tea, coffee, hot chocolate, or any other hot liquid, so it’s hard for me to adjust. I get grossed out by the taste, and I don’t like the fact that it’s hot. Is there a way to make it taste better, other than milk, sugar, and honey? Also, is the cold Lipton Green tea you can buy at the convenience store just as healthy?

Do you have a green tea recipe?

I don’t know why but I love tea in the summer and not in the winter. How about you?

I have been getting into brewing my own kinds of tea , mainly by adding things after the initial brewing , but certain kinds of ingreidiants cant be added after brewing such as orange blossom and ginger. How do I make tea without ( At least Im assuming thats how you make tea with solid ingriediants added in) using the bags? Do I put it through a strainer or something?
