ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SOUTHERN SWEET TEA



Absolutely the Best Southern Sweet Tea image

I know, I know. Everyone claims the best sweet tea around. I only say mine is best because everyone, and I do mean everyone... says so (so far, but now it's posted so that may change). Posted by request. Sometimes we will substitute two of the Lipton tea bags for two green tea bags which gives this tea another wonderful flavor. SOME TEA 'BAG' HISTORY: Tea 'bags' were originally created by manufacturers as 'samples' of their fine teas and given to the distributors to boost sales.

Categories     Beverages

Time 4h5m

Yield 1 gallon, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 lipton tea bags (regular size)
1 gallon water, very hot from tap (or you can boil it first)
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Hold tea bags lined up evenly by the strings and make a loop knot to hold them together. Pull off paper and staple (from paper side). Set aside.
  • In a one gallon pitcher, add very hot water. Stir in the sugar till dissolved.
  • Add tea bags and dunk into water a few times, then leave them in the pitcher. Cover with lid of pitcher and refrigerate.
  • Wait until it is very cold (at least 3-4 hours). The flavor changes until it reaches the 'cold' state.
  • Drink and enjoy. (I leave the bags set in the pitcher, but recommend taking them out after about 8 hours--- IF it lasts that long! We make 2 pitchers at a time down here in the south. :).

Provided by Sheryl.Aman

Categories     Beverages

Time 30m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 big tea bags (can use 6 small tea bags)
3 cups water (in small pot)
1 -3 cup sugar ((I use 1 cup)
tap water (put in 1 gal container)

Steps:

  • Place the tea bags and 3 cups of water in small pot.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Take off heat and let sit for about 30 minutes.
  • Mean while, put 1 to 3 cups of sugar and tap water in the gallon container, and mix.
  • Pour warm boiled tea water into the container holding back the tea bags with a big plastic spoon. Fill the pot (with the bags still in it) with tap water and pour into container til almost full. Do not break the tea bags.(if so you can still drink it)
  • Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Let cool. Chill in the refrigerator and serve over ice. (I try to wait at least an hour before drinking. But it's so good, you won't be ble to. The longer you wait the better it is.)
  • Enjoy!
