Well, I found Nestea refrigerated unsweetened tea in 1/2 gallon size.
But it still has preservatives in it. The refrigeration might just be
a marketing ploy since one of their other refrigerated teas is full of
corn syrup. The label says "natural brewed" which is not a good sign
because nature often doesn't brew tea at water boiling temperature.
But the company FAQ says that the refrigerated tea is pasteurized and
that is the right idea as long as it is tea-bag brewed and not instant
tea stirred in.

Another problem, when they flavor the tea they don't use fruit juice
but use "natural flavor". The next problem is that it's not in soda-
can size.
