  1. The extracts bring out the best flavoring. This was fabulously different, refreshingly restorative, uniquely energizing, invigoratingly brisk, spiritually uplifting. Oops, I think I've had enough caffeine for the day. Made for 123 Hit wonders. 5*s
     
  2. I steeped the whole amount of water so it would be nice and strong and halved the sugar - it had a nice flavor with the almond in it!
     
  3. Easy method for making iced tea without having to wait hours for it to cool. The almond and vanilla by themselves would have worked better for me, though. Too much lemon, which clashed a bit with the vanilla. I will make this again and leave out the lemon.
     
  4. I'm not leaving any stars, but it's only because I was making half of the recipe, but when I got to the end, I put in the full amount of water so it was very watered down and I really couldn't tell if I liked it or not. Will make this again and update my review with stars. Made for Zaar Stars.
     
  5. Very good and quite refreshing...hit the spot as it is 97 degrees outside!
