Method

Brewing the Tea

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, bring 16 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.

  2. 2

    Steep Tea

    Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and add the 8 black tea bags. Allow the tea to steep for 5-7 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea.

  3. 3

    Sweeten the Tea

    After steeping, remove the tea bags and stir in 1 cup of sugar until fully dissolved.

Cooling and Serving

  1. 4

    Cool the Tea

    Allow the tea to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled, about 1-2 hours.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Serve the chilled tea in a large pitcher or individual glasses. Add ice cubes if desired, and garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint leaves. You can also add peach slices or raspberry syrup for extra flavor.
