Directions
Sweet Iced Tea,When you order ‘tea’ in TX you will be asked ‘sweet’ or ‘unsweet’. It will then arrive in a big glass with lots of ice! Here is the way we make ‘Swayte Tay” or Sweet Tea! Oh soo goooodd! Dont like it sweet- just leave out the sugar- or splenda.,This method tastes exactly how sweet tea should. Not exactly sure if the others claiming this recipe to be “weak” are following the steps and/or ingredients exactly. The recipe calls for 3 FAMILY-sized tea bags, which is the equivalent to 12 regular-sized tea bags. Important steps are: 1) steeping, covered, for 10 minutes. If you do not know the definition of steeping, STOP… do not continue… only continue to BUY your sweet tea from the shelves. 2) Strain and press FROM the tea bags. I literally squeeze all of the liquid out of each tea bag with my fingers. This is important concentration of the tea flavor.,I already have a great method for making tea with regular-size tea bags, but for some reason, I always have the family-size bags in the pantry. This turned out far too weak. It hardly tasted like tea at all. I will try again using this for only 1/2 gallon and see if that works better.
