Who doesn't like iced tea? It brings back memories of good times, good company, and good weather. However, most iced teas are loaded with sugar and that's not the best for our health.
Instead of giving up iced tea altogether, why don't we just make a healthier version?

1/2 lemon, thinly sliced
6 fresh basil leaves

Pour hot water into the mason jar/pitcher, and allow it to steep for 15 minutes. Then, remove the tea bags.
