The bigger national brands (Lipton & Tetley)sell blends especially for making iced tea; the advantage is supposed to be that these blends do not get cloudy when chilled. However, I am wondering if the quality of tea in these blends is the same as the quality used in their hot tea blends. I've read that most of the tea used in instant iced tea mixes (which I do not use)comes from Argentina, and Argentine tea is not supposed to be great quality. Would this tea be used in iced tea bags as well?
Does using "hot" tea bags for iced tea result in a superior brew or does it make any difference?
