With the warm summer weather upon us, the thought of enjoying a nice, cool beverage is definitely appealing. One of my favorite choices is iced Bigelow Tea. The refreshing taste and lovely aroma make it the perfect drink to quench my thirst on hot days. I love brewing a pot of Bigelow's tea and letting it chill in the fridge, and then serving it over ice, perhaps with a slice of lemon or a sprig of mint for an extra burst of flavor. There's something truly delightful about sipping on a cold glass of tea while relaxing in the sunshine, whether I'm lounging by the pool, enjoying a picnic in the park, or simply unwinding on my patio. Iced Bigelow Tea is not only delicious, but it also offers the perfect combination of refreshment and relaxation during these warm summer months.
Iced tea can be enjoyed year-round, but it is particularly refreshing during the warm summer months. There’s nothing better than savoring a tall glass of fresh-brewed iced tea from Bigelow Tea after a long day of gardening, mowing the lawn, or taking an invigorating bike ride. The crisp, refreshing taste is a delightful reward for your hard work.
Additionally, iced tea is the perfect beverage to take to the beach, where the whole family can enjoy it together. Whether you prefer classic black tea, fruity herbal blends, or refreshing green tea, there’s a flavor to satisfy everyone’s taste. Pack it in a cooler with some ice and your favorite snacks, and you’ve got a wonderful way to stay hydrated while having fun in the sun. A chilled glass of iced tea pairs beautifully with summer activities, making it a go-to choice for family gatherings and outdoor adventures.

Though it’s hard to imagine, iced tea is a relatively new “invention.” Its origins can be traced as far back as 1890, but it was widely popularized at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis. Some 120 years later, summertime and Bigelow iced tea go hand in hand.
All Bigelow Tea varieties are delicious on ice, but some really tickle the summertime palate. Try English Teatime and Lemon Lift, a great combination pictured and created by fan Busy At Home. Or try Plantation Mint for a crisp, clean beverage or Wild Blueberry & Açai herbal tea for an invigorating cool drink. Bigelow Tea even makes Iced Tea bags specifically for brewing iced tea! Or, as @needcaffeine tweeted, “8 bags of Bigelow green tea makes a great gallon of iced tea.”
