1

Place the tea bags in a large heatproof glass pitcher. Use a vegetable peeler to strip the peel from the lemon or orange, avoiding as much of the white pith as possible, and add the peel to the pitcher.
2

Pour the simmering water into the pitcher and let it steep for at least 5 minutes. Remove the tea bags and discard. Refrigerate the tea until cool.
3

To serve, fill iced tea glasses with ice and pour the tea over the ice. Sweeten with simple syrup, if desired. Drop some slices of lime into the tea for that extra lemon lime taste.
