Iced Tea a la Tony

May 22nd, 2005

Here’s a little recipe for iced tea. I decided to make some and this has to be the best version I’ve made to date. It’s absolutely delicious in my opinion and the perfect drink for lounging in the summer sun.

  1. Bring a 2 cup pot of water to a boil.
  2. Add 6 Lipton Orange Pekoe tea bags and let cool to room temperature.
  3. Take 1/3 and add it to a pitcher. Store the remainder in the fridge for the next batch.
  4. Add 2 tsp chopped mint leaves and 1/2 lemon, sliced, to the pitcher.
  5. Squeeze the other half of the lemon into the pitcher then slice and add it to the pitcher.
  6. Add 1/2 cup sugar and stir.
  7. Fill the pitcher up with cold water. Stir. Add ice. Serve with straw.
