How to Make Perfect Iced Tea

Iced tea is delicious and addictive! In this article, I'll show you how I make it, step by step. Nothing beats having a pitcher of tea on hand in the fridge.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Tea
• Filtered Water
• Kettle
• Glass Measuring Cup
• Spill-proof Pitcher
• Cane Sugar

1. Put a kettle of water over high heat. Let it reach a boil.

2. Place tea bags in a measuring cup and cover with hot water. Allow them to steep 2-4 minutes.

3. Remove tea bags and add sugar to taste while the tea is still warm. I like mine quite sweet, but individual tastes will vary.

4. Pour your tea concentrate into the pitcher and cover with filtered water. Mix well.

5. Chill and serve!

Tips & Warnings

• Decaf tea is fine, but I've noticed that caffeinated tea has a more robust flavor, so I recommend it over decaf.
