Alpha Gal Friendly Whole30 Iced Black Tea

Few drinks are as satisfying as a tall glass of perfectly brewed iced tea, and this one delivers that deep, refreshing flavor without any of the additives or mystery sweeteners hiding in bottled versions. The key is pulling the bags at just the right moment — that four-to-five-minute steep hits the sweet spot between bold and bitter, giving you a rich amber brew that tastes clean and bright. Straining the tea before chilling keeps the texture smooth, and the ice-in-the-pitcher method brings it down to temperature quickly without watering it down. A squeeze of lemon or a sprig of fresh mint at serving takes it from simple to genuinely special. For anyone navigating mammalian meat allergy concerns, this recipe is as straightforward as it gets — just water, tea, and ice, with zero hidden animal-derived ingredients to worry about. It's the kind of drink you can make a big batch of and keep in the fridge all week.
