Sweet Tea

We are having record heat here in the Pacific Northwest

Which calls for sweet tea!

My husband is from the east coast and LOVES his tea

He has been begging me to make some good ole' fashioned 

tall glass of goodness.  I always love hearing from you all, so if you have a special recipe please share with me. 

Here's my recipe;

8 tea bags

16 cups of water

one sliced fresh lemon

one cup of syrup

1c of water - 1 c of sugar

(bring to a boil til dissolved)

Put it all in a large clear container and let sit in the sun 3-4 hours

Chill in the frig and enjoy!

This is the syrup

Bring to a boil until sugar is all dissolved 

(about 10 mins)

Do you have any tea secrets to share?

love to hear them!
