- Mom's Ice Tea
-
- (Makes around one gallon)
-
- 10 tea bags
- 1 cup sugar
- water
- ice
-
- 1. Boil about 4-5 cups of the water. Steep the tea bags for 2-5 min.
- 2. Remove the tea bags and dissolve the sugar in the hot tea.
- 3. Transfer the sweetened tea to a gallon container (we always used a
- well-rinsed out milk jug) and fill with cold water and/or ice.
-
- Serve over more ice.
-
- Notes: Yeah, its alot, but it goes fast. You can also use fewer tea
- bags (around 4-5) and steep them longer (a half hour) for "Aunt Nancy's
- Ice Tea"(tm) :). Sugar is to taste and can be freely adjusted. I use
- decaffinated tea bags here at school and it tastes the same to me.
- Never tried artifical sweeteners - but I don't see why they wouldn't
- work. Just add them last, after the tea has cooled.
-
- Now I'm thirsty . .
