Actually, no, from what I've recently learned. Using an extra packet of tea of double-strength a tea that will be diluted with melting ice is okay, but as you add more and more tea for a small amount of water, you don't necessarily extract more essence of the full tea flavor. For leaf teas, you often end up with just the bitter part of the essence which is relatively easy to extract, but not the more flavorful components (the "body" of the tea). If you need a stronger tea for your tastes, it's best to find a naturally stronger tea and brew it normally (at least not more than double strength). Just curious: what's everyone's favorite tea hot, and your favorite iced?
