Prepare Tea

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. Allow the tea to steep for 5-7 minutes, depending on your desired strength.

3. Remove Tea Bags

After steeping, carefully remove the tea bags from the saucepan. If you like your tea sweetened, add your preferred sweetener (sugar, honey, or stevia) while the tea is still warm. Stir until fully dissolved.

Cool Down

4. Cool the Tea

Allow the tea to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until chilled.

Serve

5. Prepare Glasses

In a tall glass, add 1 cup of ice cubes.

6. Pour Tea

Pour the chilled tea over the ice cubes in the glass.

7. Add Flavorings

If desired, add 1 cup of lemon juice, a bunch of fresh mint leaves, or peach slices to the tea for added flavor.

8. Garnish

Garnish with additional mint leaves or lemon slices if desired.

9. Serve Immediately

Serve the iced tea immediately and enjoy!
