sun tea
Actually I am not sure why it is called "sun tea" because it never sees the sun. I simply drop a regular sized, normal Lipton bag into a room temperature gallon of water and put it in the frig, and voila, 7-8 hours later it tastes like nectar. When one batch gets down to about to about 1/3 full then I drop another bag in another gallon... and over and over for years now. I probably go through 5-6 gallons a week.

I probably go through 5-6 gallons a week.Sun Tea RecipePut 4 to 6 tea bags into a clean 2 quart glass container. Fill with water and cap. Place outside where the sunlight can strike the container for about 3 to 5 hours. Move the container if necessary to keep it in the sun. When the tea has reached its desired strength, remove from sun and put it in the refrigerator. You may or may not want to remove the tea bags at this point. I usually don't.
The tea will probably taste more mellow than what you are used to from using boiling water. The slow seeping has a way of bringing out a slightly different flavor from the tea. Also, because you didn't use boiling water, you should refrigerate the tea and drink it up pretty quickly - a day or two. It will not keep as well as iced tea made from boiling water.
I usually make sun tea with various forms of herbal tea. Sometimes you can put in a few sprigs of fresh mint as well.
