Just make tea as you would to drink except make it by the litre not cup...
3-4 tea bags per litre, use boiling water and the tea steep, then let it go cold and refridgerate. Ad sugar etc to taste.

Try this.....3 Lipton yellow label teabags (or similar as Lipton’s yellow label can be hard to get), 2 litres of boiling water. Steep for an hour and then discard the teabags. Stir in 1/2 cup lemon juice and 3/4 cup sugar and chill. Reduce the amount of sugar used and add apple juice to the tea once it has steeped.It is really makes a nice change to the plain recipe.

depends on your taste. you could use fruit flavours. My American Cousin makes a normal cup of tea then pours it over a mug filled with ice cubes and drinks it like that

Or this one.....I love iced tea. I use a big stock pot,add 3 tea bags of whatever you like.I love the Moroccan mint from Dilmah or Harneys pomegranate oolong. I use whatever i have. Add half a cup of sugar to 2 lts water. This is a mild sweet, not the American sweet tea.Sugarto taste I suppose. I also add the peeled rind of lemon or orange. Bring to a light boil and i let it cool on the stove top overnight with everything still steeping. I strain in the morning and put in the fridge.
