I thought that same thing last year, and started brewing and storing large batches of cold tea (I believe Orange Pekoe), and on hot or muggy days I'll make up a cup of cold tea like any other cup of tea, but also add ice cubes. I actually find it tastes a little better - maybe just because the day is hot by comparison.

I'm actually going to brew some storage tea right now for cold tea consumption and iced tea. The weather is getting nice. Time to be like mustard and get prepared.
I've heard of this, but never seriously tried it. Would you advise just brewing some earl grey and then sticking it in the refrigerator for a while? I'd assume ice cubes would dilute the taste?
