Brewing the Tea
1. Boil the Water
In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
2. Steep the Tea
Once the water is boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and add 4 tsp of loose black tea leaves or 4 tea bags. Allow the tea to steep for 5-7 minutes, depending on your desired strength.
3. Remove Tea Leaves/Bags
After steeping, remove the tea leaves or tea bags from the saucepan. If using loose tea, you may want to strain the tea into another container to remove the leaves.
4. Cool the Tea
Let the brewed tea cool to room temperature. If you prefer iced tea, you can refrigerate it after it has cooled.

If serving iced, fill a glass with ice cubes.

Pour the cooled unsweetened tea into the glass over the ice, if using.
7. Add Optional Flavors
Garnish with lemon slices or fresh mint leaves as desired.

Stir gently and serve immediately. Enjoy your refreshing unsweetened tea!
