The Salton Iced Tea Maker: Easy, Strong, and Fast

I threw a tea party in the middle of the summer, and all of my girlfriends laughed as I bragged about the wonder of my brand new Salton iced tea maker. With its clear instructions listed on the pitcher itself, its durable strength, and its quick brewing, I felt justified in my bragging rights. After our fifth pitcher of iced tea, no one was laughing anymore. They could then understand the true genius and beauty behind the Salton iced tea maker and its delicious brew.

My Salton was a housewarming gift from a childhood neighbor. I had experienced the taste of the delightful tea that resulted from this particular iced tea maker, and I was thrilled to receive one of my very own. I had yet to actually use the appliance and was even more excited when I realized how easy and fast it was. The only piece of information required that is not listed on the outside of the pitcher is how many tea bags you should use. (Generally I use six, although such a decision obviously depends upon what strength the user likes her tea.) The necessary amount of ice and water cannot be forgotten as it is clearly marked on the iced tea maker itself, and beyond these ingredients, all we must do is allow the tea to brew.

Not only does the Salton iced tea maker create exceptional iced tea - every time - but it also makes delicious iced coffee. The basket used for tea bags or filters has separate settings for tea and coffee, and the instructions are exactly the same. It would be hard to misconstrue the detailed directions regardless of desired drink.
