And don't forget the 1/4 tsp baking soda per gallon of tea .
I've never used baking soda in my tea and it has never been cloudy or bitter. You cannot bring water to a boil with tea that is what causes the bitterness. That is a good trick to know! Thanks!
There's a great thread on how to make the perfect Iced Tea on here. The baking soda is an interesting tip. As a southerner I have never had bitter tea when making my own but I always boil the water and then add the tea bags after the sugar dissolves and then I let the tea steep. Thanks for sharing the tip through.
Now, let's get back on topic of this dinner. It's sounding delicious!

How about Lemonade in addition to the tea?
Beretta, you can boil the water as long as you don't put the tea bags in boiling water.
