How to Make Frozen Iced Tea
- Steep tea bags: Place 6 family-size black tea bags in a large bowl. Pour 8 cups of boiling water over the tea bags.
- Steep: Let the tea steep for 10 minutes. Remove and discard tea bags.
- Make simple syrup: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup water, and 1/4 cup light corn syrup.
- Boil syrup: Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Cool syrup: Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
- Combine ingredients: Add the cooled simple syrup and 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice to the brewed tea. Stir well to combine.
- Cool completely: Let the tea mixture cool completely to room temperature.
- Freeze: Pour the cooled tea mixture into a 13x9 inch baking dish. Cover and freeze for at least 6 hours, or until solid.
- Fluff: Remove the frozen tea from the freezer. Using a fork, scrape the entire mixture until it becomes light and fluffy.
- Serve: Serve immediately in sorbet cups or small dishes. Garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint sprigs, if desired.
