Instructions
Fill a medium-sized pot or boiler with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil. Allow to cool for a few minutes. I like to get the water to about 180°F before adding my tea bags. Allow the tea to steep for about 3 to 5 minutes, but no longer.
Remove the tea bags, but do not squeeze them. Add 1 cup sugar (or less or more to your liking) while the tea is still warm. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
Add the tea to a heat safe glass or plastic pitcher. Add 6 cups room temperature water. Chill in the fridge or enjoy over ice.
