What is "iced tea"?

Iced tea is a popular beverage that is made by brewing tea and then chilling it with ice. The tea can be brewed using a variety of teas, including black, green, or herbal teas, and can be flavored with fruit, herbs, or other ingredients. Sweeteners such as sugar or honey can be added to the tea either before or after brewing. Iced tea is a refreshing and cooling drink that is enjoyed during warm weather, and is often served at picnics, barbecues, and other outdoor events. It is a popular alternative to sugary soft drinks, and can be served unsweetened or with varying levels of sweetness depending on personal preference. Iced tea is also often used as a base for other drinks, such as Arnold Palmers, which is a mixture of iced tea and lemonade.
