HAWAIIAN ICED TEA
I first tasted this tea in a popular Italian restaurant in my college hometown of Kailua. I have been craving it ever since, and have experimented with a few proportions. Add more tea leaves for a stronger tea, but do not steep longer or the tea will end up tasting bitter. (If it does, add a pinch of baking soda.) Always make something to your liking! This is also great to serve at showers.

Tips:
- Use loose-leaf tea for the best flavor. If you don't have loose-leaf tea, you can use tea bags, but be sure to use good quality tea bags.
- Steep the tea for the recommended amount of time. If you over-steep the tea, it will become bitter.
- Sweeten the tea to your taste. You can use sugar, honey, or another sweetener.
- Add fruit, herbs, or spices to the tea for extra flavor. Some popular additions include lemon, lime, mint, and ginger.
- Serve the tea over ice. You can also garnish the tea with a slice of fruit or a sprig of mint.
