This will keep the tea hot during brewing. 2. Heat fresh cold tap water to a rolling boil, (Only boiling water can extract the full flavor from the leaves.) 3. Add 1 teaspoon tea or 1 tea bag per cup of water to your teapot. Pour the boiling water over the tea. 4. Brew only 3 to 5 minutes. Don't judge the strength of the tea by its color. If you prefer a weaker tea, add water after the tea is brewed. How to prepare iced tea: Just follow the steps for making hot tea, but use 50% more tea to allow for melting ice. For instance, to make 4 cups of hot tea, you'll need 4 tea bags; for iced tea, you'll need 6 tea bags to make 4 cups. To make a pitcher of iced tea, use this easy method: 1. In a saucepan, heat 1 quart of fresh, cold tap water to a full rolling boil. 2. Remove from heat and immediately add 6 tea bags. 3. Cover and let stand 5 minutes. 4. Do not refrigerate. Keep at room temperature and pour over ice to serve. How to prepare cold-water iced tea: 1. Fill a 1-quart pitcher with cold tap water. 2. Add 6 tea bags (remove tags). Cover and let stand in the refrigerator. 3. After at least 8 hours or overnight, remove tea bags, squeezing them against the side of the pitcher. 4. When ready to serve, pour into ice-filled glasses. This recipe makes 1 quart and can easily be doubled. How to brew "sun" tea: 1. Put 9 tea bags or the equivalent in a gallon jar and fill with cold water. 2. Set outside in the sunshine 3 to 4 hours. Vary number of tea bags and duration of brewing time according to the tea strength you desire. Refrigerate mixture within 5 hours after the start of brewing. 3. For different taste treats, add mint leaves or other spices and brew with the tea.
