Tea Preparation

Method

Tea Brewing

1

Boil Water

In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.

2

Steep Tea

Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and add 4 black tea bags. Let the tea steep for 5-7 minutes, depending on how strong you want it.

3

Sweeten Tea (Optional)

If you are making sweet tea, add 1 cup of sugar to the hot tea while it is still warm. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.

4

Cool the Tea

Remove the tea bags and let the tea cool to room temperature. You can speed this up by placing it in the refrigerator.

5

Serve

Fill a glass with ice, pour the cooled tea over the ice, and garnish with lemon slices as desired.
