down home sweet tea

Ingredients
4 tea bags
1 cup sugar
1 gallon water
Directions
  1. here's directions for using your coffee pot:

  2. use 3 regular tea bags, and make the 4th one of your favorite flavors. I have used with great success these flavors: Peppermint, hazelnut, Constant Comment, jasmine, blackberry, and green tea. As you can see the possibilities are endless.

  3. put the 4 tea bags in the empty carafe and let the 12-cups water run through your coffee pot on to them.

  4. Let that steep for about 10 minutes, while your coffee pot's warmer is still going.

  5. Once that's done, put about 4 cups of ice in a pitcher. Put the cup of sugar on top of that, then add your steaming hot tea from the carafe.

  6. Stir it up, and you have great sweet tea.
