Smooth Sweet Tea Recipe.
This recipe makes a great baseline though I made some tweaks! I used 2x the boiling water for my tea, and 5 cups ice. I steeped in a teapot, then poured over the ice i put in the pitcher. I think ice works better for ice tea recipes than cool water if you have an ice maker or easy way to get lots of ice. The tea is beautifully clear as you can see, and I thought it had great flavor and the perfect level of sweetness. I usually buy pure leaf sweet tea so that is what I was aiming to replicate :)
