I know, I know, this blog is about HOT tea. But it's so hot out, and Southern gal that I am, it was impossible for me not to explain how to make real iced tea, with real tea leaves, and really impress your friends! So here goes...
Really Good Iced Tea
Take 2 quarts of hot water to 7-10 teaspoons of loose Earl Grey leaves; steep for 8 minutes, then strain into another pitcher and add 4 cups of ice.
You probably know this, but mint and lemon both make great garnishes for Really Good Iced Tea.
If you prefer a mint tea, just take regular black tea leaves and mix them with dried mint.
Happy Sipping,
