Refrigerator iced tea is smooth without bitterness, and it's easy to make. It's safer to drink than sun tea and you get all of the cancer fighting health benefits found in tea.
4 Tea bags or 4 teaspoons loose leaf tea
Liquids
4 cups Tap or room temperature water
Use a 1-quart Mason jar or pitcher.
--If using tea bags: hang tea bags inside pitcher or jar with strings hanging over the rim (for easy removal later). Add water making sure that tea is immersed, cover, and put in fridge for 6-12 hours. Remove tea bags and serve.
--If using loose leaf tea: add 4 teaspoons tea leaves to a tea basket, tea ball or tea filter bag. Rest over top of jar or pitcher so the tea will be exposed to the water, but it can easily be removed after the tea has steeped. Place in the refrigerator for 6-12 hours. Remove tea leaves, and it's ready to serve.
ADJUST RECIPE FOR ANY QUANTITY. Use 1 teabag or 1 teaspoon of loose leaf tea per cup of water.
