A delightful and easy-to-make iced tea recipe that is perfect for any occasion.
Place the tea bags and baking soda in a large heat-resistant glass measuring cup.
The baking soda helps to neutralize any bitterness in the tea.
Pour the boiling water over the tea bags and cover the cup. Let it steep for 15 minutes.
Covering the cup retains the heat and ensures a strong brew.
Remove the tea bags and pour the tea concentrate into a 2-quart pitcher.
Squeeze the tea bags gently to extract all the flavor before discarding.
Add the cold water to the pitcher and stir well.
Using cold filtered water enhances the clarity and taste of the tea.
If you prefer sweetened tea, add the sugar to the pitcher and stir until dissolved.
Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less sugar.
Let the tea cool to room temperature before refrigerating.
Cooling the tea before refrigerating prevents cloudiness.
Serve the iced tea over ice and garnish with lemon slices.
Add a sprig of mint for an extra refreshing touch.
