Ingredients
- one gallon water (get the plastic jug)
- 8 tea bags (salada my fav)
- 1 cup sugar or to liking or use artificial sweetener
- slice of lemon or orange per glass
- mint leaves for additional garnish
Directions
- In large pot bring water to boil
- turn off
- take tea bags and dunk them in holding onto ends
- swirl and redunk for two to three minutes until water turns a nice dark brown
- Leaving tea bags longer gives a bitter and dry-tongue taste
- remove bags and discard
- stir in sweetener until dissolved
- let cool to warm and pour into plastic jug
- cover and refrigerate (should keep fine for a week)
- OR pour into a glass full of ice cubes and garnish with lemon/orange
- add fresh squeezed lemon juice if you like it.
- garnish with mint leaves

replace two or three tea bags with a favourite mint tea in the bag. For other tea types consult package for brewing times.

I too have put up our family recipe for iced tea. My kids are not fond of the mint or lemon, so I make a pretty bland tea. I really like yours!
