How to Make Mark's Honey Sweetened Tea

  1. Bring 1 quart (4 cups) of filtered water to a rolling boil in a saucepan.
  2. Remove the water from the heat and immediately add 4-6 tea bags (adjust to your preferred strength).
  3. Steep the tea bags for 15 minutes, then remove them, gently squeezing out any remaining liquid.
  4. In a 2-cup measuring cup, combine 1/3 cup of raw honey with filtered water until the cup is filled to the 1 2/3 cup mark. Stir until the honey is completely dissolved.
  5. Pour the prepared tea concentrate (1 quart) into a 1-gallon pitcher.
  6. Add approximately 6 cups of filtered water to the pitcher until it's about half full.
  7. Add the honey water to the pitcher, then top it up with filtered water to reach the 1-gallon mark. Stir gently to combine.
  8. Transfer the iced tea to a glass container with a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until well chilled.
  9. Serve over ice and enjoy! Add lemon or mint for extra flavor (optional).
