Cómo preparar Absolutely The Best Southern Sweet Tea

  1. In a large pot, combine 6 cups of water and 8 black tea bags (Lipton or your favorite brand).
  2. If desired, replace 2 of the black tea bags with 2 green tea bags for a unique flavor twist.
  3. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
  4. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. This slow simmering process will draw out all the wonderful flavor from your tea.
  5. Remove the pot from the heat and let the tea steep for another 30 minutes, undisturbed, to allow the flavors to fully meld.
  6. After 30 minutes, remove the tea bags and stir in 2 cups of granulated sugar.
  7. Continue stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  8. Pour the tea into a large pitcher or container and add 4 cups of cold water. This step helps to chill the tea faster and adds to the refreshing nature.
  9. Stir well to combine. For extra intense sweetness add another 1/2 cup of sugar to taste.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving. The longer it chills, the better it tastes!
  11. Serve over ice and enjoy the taste of the best Southern Sweet Tea!
