Vanilla-Lime Iced Tea is my current obsession and it's super easy to make.
Put in two of the large tea bags or about 6 of the small ones and let steep until pretty dark.
In a small sauce pan, bring just to a boil one cup of sugar and one cup of water.
Meanwhile, juice 2-3 limes & retain limes.
When the sugar is fully dissolved, it will look like clear water, remove from heat. Add a vanilla bean split lengthwise, seeds scraped, the lime juice, and lime rinds.
Allow to steep and cool completely. Then strain and add into the tea.
I also squeeze the limes again just to get all of the juice out.

Serve over ice.
Ooooh, that sounds yummy!
