This is by far the best iced tea I've ever made, after a long, desperate search for perfection. Just the right amount of sweet, with just enough lemon to tickle your tastebuds. Ingredients:
2 cups water |
6 cups water |
8 tea bags (i like red rose) |
3/4 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Boil 2 cups water, and pour over the tea bags.
2. Let steep 7 minutes.
3. Remove tea bags, but don't squish them or squeeze them, to keep bitterness at bay!
4. Stir sugar into the hot concentrated tea mixture, until dissolved.
5. Top up with remaining 6 cups water (ice cold, preferably).
6. Stir, then add lemon juice, stirring again.
7. Let cool or serve with ice.
