I've been drinking tea my entire life. Growing up, my mom made weekly pitchers of tea that we'd enjoy every night with dinner. Now, I do the same for my family. Truth be told, we gave Meriwether a sip of tea a few months ago, and now we can't drink it from clear glasses. She will demand a sip and won't stop pointing until we give in. We're so bad (!!) This simple tea recipe is sweet, easy and doesn't even require boiling a pot of water. I've taken a pitcher to countless neighbors and events, and I always get asked how I make it. I think the Earl Grey really adds something special.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED...
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Fill your large Pyrex measuring bowl to 8 cups.
- Tie 3 Cold Brew Tea Bags and 1 Early Grey Tea Bag together
- Seep for 20 minutes, or until water has reached a dark brown color
- Meanwhile, pour 1.5 to 2 cups sugar into your 1 gallon pitcher
- When seeping is done, remove tea bags and pour the seeped tea into the 1 gallon pitcher
- Fill to 1 gallon mark with cold water
- Voilà - you're done!
See? Super simple. And another note - it's always sweeter the next day. Enjoy!
