Ingredients for Milos Sweet and Unsweet Tea

Method

Directions to Make Milos Sweet and Unsweet Tea

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Steep Tea

    Once the water is boiling, remove the pot from heat and add 6 tea bags. Allow the tea to steep for about 10-15 minutes, depending on your desired strength.

  3. 3

    Remove Tea Bags

    After steeping, carefully remove the tea bags from the pot. If you prefer stronger tea, you can let them steep a bit longer, but be cautious of bitterness.

  4. 4

    Add Sugar (for Sweet Tea)

    If you are making sweet tea, add 1 cup of sugar to the hot tea and stir until fully dissolved. For unsweet tea, skip this step.

  5. 5

    Cool the Tea

    Allow the tea to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer it to a pitcher.

  6. 6

    Serve with Ice

    Fill glasses with ice and pour the cooled tea over the ice. Optionally, garnish with a lemon slice for added flavor.
