Fill tall glasses with ice cubes and add tea to fill glasses halfway. Add milk or half-and-half and stir. Variation: The tea may be brewed in a teapot, but it will still need to be filtered through a paper filter or a very fine nylon strainer. Preheat pot with boiling water and allow to steep 6 to 8 minutes before straining.
