DELICIOUS QUICK & EASY SOUTHERN SWEET TEA

Delicious Quick & Easy Southern Sweet Tea image

A delicious sweet tea recipe that I've been using for years. I always get compliments. It's super fast & super easy. This recipe is to make ONE GALLON.

Provided by The Dirty Kitchen

Categories Beverages

Time 5m

Yield 1 gallon, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 family-size tea bags or 3 -4 regular tea bags
3 -4 cups sugar
hot water
cold water

Steps:

Place family size tea bag in a microwave safe container filled with water & microwave until it boils (approx. 4min for 4cups).
While that is going, in a gallon size pitcher, pour about 1 1/2 - 2 inches of sugar in the bottom. I usually eye it and it comes out perfect.
The microwave should be finishing up. Pour hot tea water into the pitcher over the sugar. The hot water dissolves the sugar granuals. Stir until completely dissolved. (If you have time, let sit in microwave for a while and steep even more. If you don't have time, that's cool too.).
Fill the rest with cold water & refrigerate.
Serve over ice. Enjoy!
--------------------------------------------.
I, personally, don't put lemon in it because I find that lemon cuts the sugar & you have to use a whole lot more sugar for it to be southern "sweet".

PERFECT SOUTHERN SWEET TEA

Perfect Southern Sweet Tea image

This recipe uses a coffee maker to make perfectly-brewed sweet tea. A supervisor at a bank where I worked back in 1983, gave me this fail-proof recipe. I've been making it ever since, and always receive great compliments on this delicious tea! :)

Categories Non-Alcoholic Drinks

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 2

Ingredients

2 family-sized tea bags
2 Cups sugar

Steps:

1. Fill a 10-12 cup coffee-maker carafe with cold water. Pour into back of coffee maker, as if making a pot of coffee. In brewing basket, place 2 family-sized tea bags, laying them sideways on top of each other. (Shake the tea bags, to spread out the tea inside each bag, before placing them on top of each other). Turn on coffee pot, and allow water to pour through, until pot is full of concentrated tea.
2. Pour 2 cups sugar into a 1-gallon pitcher. Pour all the hot tea over the sugar, and stir until dissolved. Fill coffee-maker carafe w/cold water and add to the sweetened hot tea, until gallon-pitcher is filled. Stir well. Allow tea to sit on counter-top, until cooled to room temperature, then store in refrigerator to chill.
3. Note: If you place the tea in the fridge before it is cooled to room temperature, it may become cloudy. If you're in a hurry for a cold glass of tea, you can add crushed ice (in place of tap water) to the hot concentrated tea, to fill gallon pitcher. Then, it can be stored right away in the refrigerator. As with most recipes, this tea seems to taste better on the 2nd day. But, it's also delicious immediately after it's made. Just serve over lots of ice! :)
4. One further note: I think that using a coffee-maker which has also been used for brewing coffee, can cause the tea to have a little bit of the coffee taste in it (even when the coffee pot has been washed). So, I have a coffee-maker that I only use for making tea in. We use a separate coffee-maker for my husband's coffee. :)

Upgrade Your Ice Cubes. Serving sweet tea over ice is a must, but once the cubes melt, your tea can become a watery mess. The solution: Pour tea into ice trays and make sweet tea ice cubes.
Fill It Up With Fruit. Turn your regular old glass into one you won't want to put down by adding peach flavor. Make your own peach simple syrup with this recipe.
