Servings: 1 gallon
- 1 gallon filtered water room temperature
- 8 tea bags
- 1 cup sweetener then 1/4 cup to taste
- lemon optional
In a large glass container (with lid), add 1 gallon of room-temp filtered water.
Tie 8 tea bags together and put in water.
Put the lid on the container and put in direct sunlight (outside or inside).
After 2-3 hours, remove from sunlight. At this point, I boil the brewed tea to ensure no bacteria growth.
Stir in 1 cup of sweetener (I used honey), and add ΒΌ cup at a time to taste.
Serve chilled or over ice. You can add lemon for taste and garnish.
