Is it necessary to refrigerate iced tea?

Yes Iced tea is essentially soup: leaves in water. There's enough nutrition in there to attract bacteria, which will spoil the tea. The tea leaves themselves can harbor bacteria."Sun tea" can be dangerous because it's left at temperatures at which bacteria thrive.

Iced tea should be made with either boiling water (which kills off much of the bacteria) or brewed overnight in the refrigerator. It's not like the stuff is instant death, but there's just enough of a problem that you should refrigerate your iced tea. Even in the fridge, it'll get disturbingly soupy after a few days, due to bacteria multiplying.

Keep it chilled.
