I don't think so. "Iced tea" is tea that has ice in it (tea that has been iced.) "Ice tea" would be tea either made from ice or frozen tea in the form of ice.

Or the deaths occurred on a very hot Florida day for which the people were not properly dressed. They were wearing wool.

"to Disneyland Calafonria"

Not a one-time error. Other locations in this itinerary include Pensulvenia, Indiapolis, Arazona, Phinonx, Olkahoma, and Los Angelas.

I agree with you but I feel that if we cannot see the particular glass of tea, either way is acceptable.
