OH MY GOODNESS! This is the best tea I've ever had in my life! I'm old and southern, so I'm pretty sure that my Mama put tea in my baby bottle. I might have put it in my sons baby bottles as well. Needless to say I am a tea snob and I've had good and bad teas over the years.
While traveling for business in Cleveland, there was a local restaurant that we hopped to for lunch frequently. We'd order tea and we got apricot tea, raspberry tea, blackberry tea... all seriously lacking the sweetness we craved. One day, I asked if I could go into the kitchen and show them how to make the tea we wanted.... and they said yes! From that day on, we'd call a day in advance and tell them we were coming and they would follow my recipe and make sweet tea for us!
This was all fine until a few weeks ago, when I went to a Women's Guild event and was served this unique tea! As we started our luncheon, my friends said you HAVE to figure out this tea and put it on the radio. I asked a hostess and she gave me the basic ingredients but no measurements. After some research and a few weeks of testing.... this is the BEST tea I've ever had!
You'll need:
Tea - you can use cold brew tea or instant
Cold Brew is six bags per gallon or Instant Unsweet Tea is 1/2 cup per gallon of tea
3/4 cup Country Time Lemonade mix
1 cup white sugar
1 cup white grape juice
That's it! 4 ingredients to the most refreshing and delicious tea of my life. No need to boil tea bags or heat up your kitchen. God Bless who ever invented cold tea bags.... they have changed my life.
This is wonderful for the summer and I hope that you and your family enjoy this as much as we have.
