Citrus Iced Teas

This is a sparkling iced tea, with the unusual combination of lemon with almond and vanilla. You could use regular soda water, if you prefer less lemon flavour.

• 4 cups boiling water
• 10 tea bags, black
• 2 lemons, sliced thinly
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tbs almond extract
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 2-litre bottle of lemon carbonated drink

Brew tea in a saucepan, and steep for 10 minutes. Put lemon slices into a large pitcher, giving them each a squeeze as you go. Add sugar into pitcher. Mix in tea. Add flavourings and pop right before serving. If you are not going to serve immediately, hold off on the extracts and lemon soda until then.
