How to Brew Refrigerator Tea

There's nothing more refreshing than a cold glass of iced tea when the temperature starts to skyrocket. Instead of brewing hot tea and waiting for it to cool, try this easy version that brews a perfect batch of iced tea overnight in your refrigerator.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• 1 large glass pitcher (3/4 to 1 gallon size)
• 2 family size teabags (Tetley's is good)
• 1 regular sized flavored teabag (herbal or regular), such as mint, Chai, peach, etc.
• Water

1. Fill a clean glass pitcher with a lid (like the one in picture) with water. Use bottled or filtered water for best taste.
2. Add teabags. Don't add any sugar or lemon yet.
3. Attach lid securely and place in refrigerator overnight.
4. In the morning, remove teabags. Don't squeeze them into the tea; this makes the drink cloudy.
5. Add sugar, lemon or mint and serve.

Tips & Warnings

• A glass pitcher provides the best flavor.
• Wash pitcher and rinse thoroughly after each use.
• Use a pitcher with a tight fitting lid to lock out any odors from refrigerator.
• You can also use two regular size teabags to every 1 family size.
