Low Cal, No Caffeine Iced Tea image

You might find it hard to believe that I conjured up this recipe because I bought a kegerator w/ CO2 system. Since I have the perfect beverage distribution system, I felt bad hogging it all to myself to fill with only homebrew. So, I have a a single tap on there for kids to drink from. And therein lies the problem. The kids drink lots.. which is good on a hot summers day, except for all the sugar and caffeine that they'd ingest with traditional iced tea. So this is an iced tea recipe that I will triple and fill up a 3 gallon keg with, that will not lead to supercharged 2 year olds that run into things and bump their heads (as much), or as many bloodcurdling screams of hyper adolescents in the backyard. And I like it because I don't want the jolt of sugar.
