I don't sweeten my tea, but I commiserate because for the past few years
all the tea I've made by traditional methods has turned cloudy, if not
immediately, then when ice is added or it's refrigerated.

I can't explain it, but I have tried numerous brands of commercial tea.
I have tried tap water, softened water, filtered water, bottled spring
water, and distilled water, all with the same results.

The only two methods I seem to be able to use successfully both involve
"brewing" with cold water. I either make "sun tea", or use Lipton's Cold
Brew Tea Bags. In both cases, the tea never turns cloudy.
