For one gallon of Iced Tea:
Our kettle holds about 12 cups (2-1/2 liters) of water, our tea pot holds about half as much. So boil the water in the kettle and add five tea bags to the tea pot.
When the water boils, fill the tea pot and steep for five minutes (no more).
Pour the tea into the tea pitcher and refill the tea pot with water (same bags) and steep for ten minutes.
Add this tea to the pitcher, top it off with cold water or ice, and sweeten (we use 1-1/3 cup sugar
Enjoy cold over ice.
