Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Brew Tea

    In a large pot, bring 16 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the tea bags. Let steep for 10-15 minutes, depending on desired strength.

  2. 2

    Sweeten (Optional)

    If making sweet tea, remove the tea bags and stir in 1 cup of granulated sugar while the tea is still warm. Stir until fully dissolved.

  3. 3

    Cool Down

    Allow the brewed tea to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer the tea to a gallon-sized pitcher.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Add 8 cups of ice to the pitcher to chill the tea further.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tea over ice in glasses, and garnish with lemon slices if desired.
