Hey, I just tried this before I leave next week. Take a sip from a water bottle, then take a Lipton Cold Brew Iced Tea Bag & stick it in the bottle, then shake it up for a bit.
Wa La! Iced Tea! This will be great if you are tired of plain water all day!

I love those litpton cold tea brew bags. My mom and I use them all the time. They really work. Then if you use sugar, just go to a counter service rest. to get some!
Fab Idea!

YES, they do come in decaf! Just be aware that they do not brew quickly. It's ok if you are walking around the parks, but don't expect to fix iced tea for a meal & it be ready in 5 minutes! Other than that, they are great! ;)

Hey disneyfan551 what was the WDW College Program you were in? Sounds neat. Just curious. :)

The WDW College Program is basically an internship that I participated in when I was in college. At the time, Disney selected 1000 students from all across the US and other countries. As an intern, you work wherever they assign you and live in an apartment community especially for the CP. And, we went to weekly classes, where I earned my Disney Degree in Business Applications specializing in "Management Disney Style".
I worked at the Empress Lily and would do some OT @ Pleasure Island. It was a blast! Truly the best time of my life. I highly recommend it to all college students! :Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc
wow, 1990...I'm getting so old! :rolleyes:

That is so cool disneyfan551! I never even heard of it! That's neat that you had weekly classes and learned "Management Disney Style". I bet it was a blast.
I worked at Kings Dominion years ago. That was the most fun job I ever had. Worked in the rides dept.. Eveyone wanted to be there. It seemed magical. :)
It is hard to believe we're in 2002!

Got my "Cold Brew" tea bags today. I wish they came in peach flavor! Now that's something I could use all the time!

That probably is the one serving size you are looking at. They are bigger then regular tea bags, about the size of a pitcher size regular tea bag.
Look at the box, it takes 2 of them for a 2 qt pitcher, and 1 for a 16 oz glass.

Well, I only know because the receptionist brought some in for a meeting where I work and everyone made fun of her because she was putting what they thought were pitcher bags in individual glasses. Joke was on them once the looked closer at the box.
So, don't feel bad, they fooled a room full of Procter & Gamble big wigs too!

Cool! LOL. I don't feel so DUMB now!;)
Last time at Disney I had zip lock bags of powdered punch or ice tea with a small spoon to add to the water bottles that we took with us.
The tea bags sound like a better idea. Do they taste like sweetened iced tea or unsweetened. I guess it would be unsweetened.
My dd & ds only like sweetened iced tea but I really like this idea.

unsweetened. and since it is cold, it is difficult to add sugar because it does not melt :mad:
hmmm, thanks so much. I guess I will have to stick with my zip locks and powder but this seems like such a great idea/

went to the store today, and now they do have the smaller 8 oz bags. I bought some, it will take two because the water bottle is 16 oz (it would only be one of the bigger bags) but they seem to fit in the opening better.
What a great idea! Thanks for posting. :)
