Best Answer

Iced tea is not a strict solution; some components of the tea are dissolved in the water, whereas others are distributed as microscopic particles, in a colloidal suspension, and still larger particles are temporarily suspended but will settle out as the tea sits.

So, in iced tea, some chemicals from the tea are a solute, but the rest of the tea (after filtering out the large chunks of leaves) is merely suspended in the water.
