Default Double-brewed iced tea

I picked up a salad for lunch in a restaurant that is in the same
building as my office. They sell a lot of coffee (and tea) to go. On
the menu board, they were advertising that their iced teas were
"double-brewed". What, exactly, does this mean?

I don't know for certain, but I suspect it means it is brewed very
strong - with maybe twice as much leaf as you would use for
hot tea. I think the idea is that when it is served on ice, the
melting ice will cut the tea down to something closer to normal
strength.
