Unsweetened Black Iced Tea

Unsweetened iced tea is a refreshing, chilled beverage made from brewed tea that has not been sweetened with any form of sugar or sweetener. It offers the robust flavor of tea without added calories or sugar, making it a healthier alternative to traditional cold drinks, such as soda or sweetened iced teas. To prepare this drink, hot water is poured over tea leaves or tea bags, which are then steeped to attain the desired strength. The tea is cooled to room temperature before being refrigerated or poured over ice. Unsweetened iced tea is often garnished with lemon wedges or a sprig of mint, and it can be enjoyed as a flavorful and hydrating beverage on its own or as an accompaniment to a meal.
