Tea Ware Suitable for Iced Tea

To prepare all kinds of iced tea, it is not necessary to purchase special tea ware for iced tea. It is only necessary to prepare all kinds of iced tea with usual tea ware. However, to prepare only iced tea brewed by cool water, it is more convenient to use Iced Teapot, Glass Teapot, Dobin, or Large Kyusu. Would you please take a look?
