Zubereitung von Southern Sweet Iced Tea Hotel Style
- Combine 8 black tea bags with 8 cups of freshly boiled water in a large heatproof pitcher.
- Stir gently and let steep for 20-25 minutes for a strong brew, then remove tea bags.
- In a separate container, dissolve 1 ½ cups of granulated sugar into 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until completely dissolved. This creates a simple syrup.
- Once the simple syrup has cooled, combine it with the steeped tea. Stir until fully incorporated.
- Add 4 cups of cold water to the tea mixture and stir to combine.
- Add 2 cups of freshly squeezed lemon juice and stir again.
- Strain the tea mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large pitcher to remove any tea leaves or particles.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully meld.
- Serve over ice, garnished with a lemon wedge or sprig of mint (optional). Enjoy!
