Luzianne Unsweetened Iced Tea Bags 24-Count Pack of 6 — Southern black tea blend, strong for pitchers

Luzianne Unsweetened Iced Tea Bags deliver a bold, classic Southern black tea flavor made specifically for brewing chilled iced tea.

Luzianne has specialized in tea blends for over a century, sourcing leaves from around the world to create a blend that holds up when brewed strong and poured over ice. This pack contains six boxes of 24 unsweetened tea bags, designed to produce clear, robust iced tea that’s ready to customize with lemon, sweetener, or enjoyed plain. The formula used for Luzianne Iced Tea was developed decades ago and is still crafted to highlight brisk orange pekoe and pekoe cut black teas that stand up to dilution and refrigeration.

What makes Luzianne tea ideal for iced tea?

Not all black teas are created equal for iced preparations: Luzianne’s blend emphasizes leaf grades that release bold flavor quickly and maintain clarity when cooled. The combination of orange pekoe and pekoe cut gives a lively, full-bodied cup that won’t taste weak after chilling. The bags are portioned for straightforward batch brewing so you can make pitchers without extra fuss.

• Blended specifically for iced tea: stronger flavor extraction and clear color
• Orange pekoe and pekoe cut leaves for briskness and body
• Convenient tea bag format for easy pitcher brewing and single-serve use
• Unsweetened base lets you control sweetness and added flavors

How do I brew a pitcher of Luzianne unsweetened iced tea?

Brewing Luzianne for iced tea is straightforward: steep the recommended number of bags in hot water, remove the bags, then add cold water or ice to chill. Because the blend is made for iced preparations, you can use stronger initial extraction than for hot tea without bitterness. Chill the tea rapidly and store covered in the refrigerator for up to several days.

• Use a standard ratio: typically one bag per 8–12 ounces of hot water, adjust to taste
• Steep hot for 3–5 minutes, then dilute with cold water or ice for immediate cooling
• Remove bags after steeping to avoid over-extraction and bitterness
• Refrigerate in a covered pitcher; refresh with lemon, mint, or sweetener as desired

Is this product sustainably sourced and what does that mean?

Some Luzianne iced tea products carry the Rainforest Alliance seal, reflecting partnerships with farms that follow environmental and social standards. For this blend, a significant portion of the tea supply comes from Rainforest Alliance–certified farms, which helps support better conditions and land stewardship. Choosing teas with certification contributes to more sustainable farming practices across tea-growing regions.

• Approximately 30% of Luzianne’s tea supply from Rainforest Alliance certified farms
• Certification supports improved farmer livelihoods and ecological protection
• Packaging and traceability practices aim to promote responsible sourcing

How can I customize Luzianne iced tea for different tastes?

Because Luzianne Unsweetened is a neutral, full-bodied base, it’s easy to tailor to sweetness levels and flavor additions. Add simple syrup, honey, or sugar for sweetness; infuse with citrus slices, herbs, or fruit for aromatic variations. It also pairs well with mixers for nonalcoholic and cocktail-style drinks.

• Add simple syrup or granulated sugar while warm for even sweetness
• Infuse with lemon, orange, mint, or fresh berries for bright flavor notes
• Blend with iced coffee or lemonade for hybrid beverages like half-and-half styles
• Serve over crushed ice with garnish for refreshing presentation

Who is this for: Luzianne Unsweetened Iced Tea Bags suit anyone who prefers a robust, unsweetened iced tea base—home entertainers, busy households making pitchers, and tea lovers who want to control added flavors. It’s especially appealing to people who value a tried-and-true Southern-style brew and those looking for partly certified sourcing practices. The bulk pack of six boxes provides pantry-ready supply for frequent iced tea drinkers, restaurants, or gatherings.
