Which black tea makes the best iced tea? I've read that the big tea
companies (Lipton, etc.) select teas that stay clear rather than turning
cloudy when iced, when they sell teas labeled "for iced tea." What teas
might those be?

Rather than a specific tea, I'll recommend a simple method for getting
crystal clear iced tea - cold steeping. I do it a gallon at a time
like this:

Save a gallon plastic milk jug when empty. Rinse thoroughly. Put
loose tea leaves into jug. Fill with cold water (if your tap water is
tepid, have it pre-refridgerated). Put in fridge to steep for 8-12
hours. At the end of that time, strain out leaves. Done. Tea is
beautiful and tastes great.
