Fred Thompson's "Iced Tea" is a small and likeable volume filled with not only recipes, but everything you ever wanted to know about this summertime drink. He covers everything from the rules and techniques for brewing a great glass of tea (from which a great glass of ICED tea may be made) to what other countries like to serve in their iced tea glasses.

I learned quite a bit from this slim volume. For instance, why Southerners like their "sweet tea" so sweet (read the book to find out!) and how tea can be used in a fantastically good smoothie (again, read the book!). This would make a lovely hostess gift for some summer weekend at the beach!

This book finally reveals the secret to a great glass of Iced Tea. It even has a frozen bourbon iced tea that is perfect when I entertain friends.

This book makes a great gift. I received it as a gift and now give it to friends for wedding gifts with a tea pitcher and glasses, and Fred Thompson's Lemonade book. Everyone loves it!

This book contains all sorts of interesting combos with iced tea from typical flavors to punches to adult drinks. I enjoyed reading all of the comments, too. If you like iced tea and want to experiment with taste, this is a book for you.

This product is overpriced for what it is. There really isn't anything new in it. I was disappointed in this purchase.

I love Iced Tea. The recipe for Beach Bourbon Slush is worth the price of the book! We made it one year at the beach and now friends call us ahead of time and say, "You are bringing the Slush?". It is a favorite.

There are non-alcohol drinks that I love too. The spiced iced tea is now a Thanksgiving tradition.

This book makes a great gift too. Even people who never cook, enjoy recipes for drinks. It is pretty, with lots of great photos. The recipes are easy and anyone can make them.

_Iced Tea_ by Fred Thompson is a great little book, with dozens of recipes for iced tea. Recipes are divided into
- The Classics,
- Iced Tisanes and Infusions,
- Iced Tea Spritzers,
- Tea for Company,
- Strange Ways with Tea, and
- For Adults Only.

There are instruction along the way for serving iced tea, and details for making sugar syrup and other accompaniments for tea.

An excellent book from which I've already tried some recipes and I'm looking forward to trying more. If you like iced tea and want adventure beyond Lipton's, this is the book for you.

I have tried a zillion iced tea receipes, but this book makes preparing Great iced tea simple, straight-to-the-point fun! I love Charleston and Savannah iced sweet tea, and finally have the right way to make it. Save your money on the ready-to-drink stuff, buy this book and make it yourself!

Very very nice book for tea lovers needing to expand their horizans. Not just a book of recipes but informative on the few tricks of making tea.

Although these recipes sounded great, they called for many things that are not available here. Plus, these recipes called for so much sugar and or powder mixes of other sugary things, it was not for me. I decided to send it back. Not for a low carb diet.
