2. Mint tea, I brew about 6 cups, add 1/8 cup honey and put in fridge for 24 hours.
3. Mix the tea an the lemonaid together. It's called a half and half, and it's good.
4. I have a recipe called Tennessee Iced Tea that's great! Here goes: 5C. boiling water 1C. plus 1/4C sugar 6 regular sized tea bags 1 (6oz) can frozen orange juice (undiluted) 1 (12oz) can frozen lemonade (undiluted) Additional water In a large glass or stainless steel bowl, pour boiling water over 1C of sugar. Add tea bags to this and steep a few minutes. Discard tea bags. Pour mixture into a 1 gallon container. Stir in orange and lemonade concentrates. Add water to fill the 1 gallon container. Stir in 1/4C additional sugar- then refrigerate. Stir well before serving over plenty of ice. Another good one that's great for summer parties: Patio Punch 2C sugar 2C water 2C strong brewed tea 4C pineapple juice 8C orange juice 2 (28oz) bottles ginger ale Combine sugar and water in saucepan and place over low heat and stir until sugar is dissolved. Combine this mixture with the other ingredients except ginger ale. Chill for several hours- and before serving, stir in ginger ale. May float orange slices on top in a punch bowl. Hope you enjoy these!
5. Any celestial seasonings teas make great iced tea. I take two teabags, boil in 3-4 cups of water, add honey or sugar while hot. I let this sit over night room temp ia fine, remove teabags and pour over ice. ENJOY !!!
6. INGREDIENTS: 3 limes 2/3 cup white sugar 2 quarts cold water -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DIRECTIONS: Cut limes in half and squeeze lime juice into a 2 quart pitcher. Add sugar and stir until dissolved. Fill pitcher with cold water, stir and chill in refrigerator.
7. Perfect Brewed Iced Tea 4 regular tea bags (orange pekoe or green tea or a combination)* 2 cups fresh cold water Water Ice cubes Granulated sugar or other sweetener such as Simple Syrup Lemon slices (optional) Unwrap (if necessary) and carefully slide off any paper attached to the strings of the tea bags; tie the strings together and place the bags in a heat-proof 2-quart pitcher. Bring 2 cups cold water (always start with fresh cold water) to a rapid boil. Remove from heat and immediately pour over the tea bags. Allow tea to steep for 20 minutes or more. (This process simply forms the "concentrate". You can store the mixture in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.) Remove tea bags, squeeze out excess liquid (being careful to not break open the bags) and discard. Fill the pitcher with enough water to equal 2-quarts. Cover and refrigerate until well chilled before serving. Or to serve iced tea immediately, add a dozen or so ice cubes to tea concentrate then fill with water to the 2-quart level. To serve, pour tea over a generous amount of ice cubes in a tall glass, stirring in desired sweetening and a squeeze of lemon, as desired. Makes 8 servings. *If using loose tea, measure 2 tablespoons into a paper coffee filter and seal it tightly with a twist tie, or simply pour water over loose leaves in a small heatproof container, and when ready separate the liquid from the tea leaves using a strainer. Variation: Add 1 flavored tea bag such as Ginger Peach, Blackberry Sage, Vanilla Almond, etc., with the orange pekoe or green tea for a decidedly refreshing change in flavor. Makes 2 quarts. Simple Syrup for Iced Tea & More 2 cups granulated sugar 2 tablespoons light corn syrup 1 cup water Mix sugar, corn syrup and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool completely at room temperature. Pour into a covered container and refrigerate. Can be stored indefinitely in refrigerator. Makes 32 (1 tablespoon) servings; Yields 2 cups.
