Quick Lemon Iced Tea - by the Glass image

I drink this all the time whenever I don't make a pitcherful. Sometimes it's only me drinking tea and I don't need a lot, so this is fast and perfect. You can sweeten yours however you like- I don't. I also like this much lemon, but you can use a little less if you like a milder lemon taste. I use Luzianne (black) tea, but sometimes I mix one of the tea bags up with an herbal, flavored tea, like blackberry.

I'm allergic to lemons, so I used limes instead. It turned out great! The lime flavor is just as refreshing as lemon.
