I like "Ice Tea" logo, but Im not too sure about the tea itself(liquid). Looks too "perfect" to me.

there need to be bubbles, liquid on the out-side of the glas (the bit there, when the liquid is cold user added image

) ... of course refractive material, caustics, and something to reflect ...

and the ultra-last bit: citron in the middle as a focus for the eyes

and a lot of silver-black contrast.

Really nice work. Noob-question: How did you do the glass? I'd really like to know that. Wanna do a tutorial on that? :-)

Glass is easy - connect a SamplerInfo node to a Blender node and connect the latter to the Transparency and/or the reflection of your Blinn (or Phong/E)

practice until you like it - there are plenty of tuts on this one.
