To prepare iced tea, simply combine the concentrate with cold water in a pitcher. The ratio of concentrate to water can be adjusted to achieve your desired tea strength. For a standard pitcher, a common starting point is one part concentrate to four parts water. Stir well to ensure the tea is evenly distributed. You can then add ice and any desired sweeteners or flavorings, such as lemon slices, mint, or fruit. It can also be used in other beverages, like iced coffee or as a mixer for alcoholic drinks.
