Preparation

1

Make Sweet Tea

Boil 4 cups of water in a pot. Once boiling, remove from heat and add 4 black tea bags. Allow the tea to steep for 5-7 minutes, depending on desired strength.

2

Sweeten the Tea

After steeping, remove the tea bags and stir in 1 cup of granulated sugar until fully dissolved. Let the tea cool to room temperature.

3

Serve Sweet Tea

Fill a glass with ice and pour the sweet tea over the ice. Garnish with lemon slices if desired.

4

Offer Unsweetened Options

Serve Coke, Diet Coke, Mr. Pibb, Sprite, and Lemonade in separate glasses for those who prefer non-sweetened beverages.
