As soon as I finish typing this I'm going to make a great low effort, zero calorie, money-saving "recipe." Fridge tea. All you need is a container, tea bags, water, a refrigerator and time. The tea makes itself in the fridge.

I put 4 "family sized" Luzianne teabags in a gallon container and fill it with tap water. I shove that in the fridge, and a couple hours later it's iced tea. I just leave the teabags in the container until it's time to wash it.

We subscribe to "Luzianne Specially Blended for Iced Tea, Family Size, 48-Count Tea Bags (Pack of 6)" on Amazon for $31.44 and free Prime shipping. That means a gallon of iced tea (not counting the water) costs all of $0.44. There may be cheaper teabags out there but I like the flavor of the Luzianne. It's available in most Southern US supermarkets, where iced tea is the beverage of choice.
