I made myself a cup of hot oolong tea and forgot to drink it (I also forgot to take out the teabag, so it was really strong), and then I mixed that cold tea into some crystal light + ice water, and it tastes delicious! It gives it a really robust tea flavor. And like, maybe 5 calories? :)

    I make gallons of iced tea (cold brewed in the fridge) and instead of sweetener I add a packet of Crystal Light lemonade. Same result; different method. And yep, it's yummy.

    You can also brew green tea (less caffeine) and add plain lemon juice or the Crystal light - it's my new fave.
