This is my favorite way to make tea! I keep it in the fridge year round. I use 1.5 cups of Splenda and it comes out perfectly every time.

This is exactly how I've been making my tea for over a year and when I tell people I use a coffe pot, they look at me like I'm nuts. But, it's so easy, and it tastes just like the tea we get at local resturants. I actually let my tea bags steep in the tea for about twenty minutes and then pour it into my pitcher. I then add the sugar(two cups) and top with tap water. It's awesome!

A easy recipe that is refreshing and satisfies my sweet tooth. Instead of using the coffee pot, I used the Mr. Coffee Iced Tea Maker, putting the sugar in the pitcher before the tea was brewed. I used one cup of sugar. Would like to hear if anyone has tried it using a sugar substitute such as Splenda.

A beautiful, clear tea. I've never been able to make iced tea without it being cloudy. This tea is perfect both in looks AND in taste. I didn't have 'family sized' tea bags, so I used 6 regular sized. Even better with a wedge of lemon. I'm going to try making it with some peach flavored water and see how it comes out !!

In South Carolina, this is how tea is supposed to taste. Stays in my fridge year round.

I have been trying to make sweet tea that tastes like my Granny's did for years without success, until now. I use all the sugar for myself, but cut it down for my northern friends. I am going to buy a coffee maker to dedicate to tea, because even though I thought I had cleaned the coffee maker well, I still had a faint coffee background flavor in the first batch. Thanks Deanna. I make a couple of gallons a week.

Wow! What a great recipe. It was so easy! I wanted a recipe that tastes like my GrandMother's, except not quite as sweet. I only used 1 cup of sugar and it was perfect! I'll add the 2 cups when my GrandMother visits. Thanks!

Yumm! Just what I was looking for. It was a little too sweet for my husbands taste so we make it less sweet for him. I love it either way. Thanks!

Wow I didn't realize making great iced tea could be this easy! Now I can make it often. I will probably cut down on the sugar though, although it did taste wonderfully sweet! Thanks Deanna.

I have been looking for a sweet tea recipe that resembles the tea that is served in kentucky. This is as close as I've come. I liked this tea! Good Job!
