ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SOUTHERN SWEET TEA



Absolutely the Best Southern Sweet Tea image

I know, I know. Everyone claims the best sweet tea around. I only say mine is best because everyone, and I do mean everyone... says so (so far, but now it's posted so that may change). Posted by request. Sometimes we will substitute two of the Lipton tea bags for two green tea bags which gives this tea another wonderful flavor. SOME TEA 'BAG' HISTORY: Tea 'bags' were originally created by manufacturers as 'samples' of their fine teas and given to the distributors to boost sales.

Categories     Beverages

Time 4h5m

Yield 1 gallon, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 lipton tea bags (regular size)
1 gallon water, very hot from tap (or you can boil it first)
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Hold tea bags lined up evenly by the strings and make a loop knot to hold them together. Pull off paper and staple (from paper side). Set aside.
  • In a one gallon pitcher, add very hot water. Stir in the sugar till dissolved.
  • Add tea bags and dunk into water a few times, then leave them in the pitcher. Cover with lid of pitcher and refrigerate.
  • Wait until it is very cold (at least 3-4 hours). The flavor changes until it reaches the 'cold' state.
  • Drink and enjoy. (I leave the bags set in the pitcher, but recommend taking them out after about 8 hours--- IF it lasts that long! We make 2 pitchers at a time down here in the south. :).

30 SOUTHERN DESSERTS AS ICONIC AS THEY ARE DELICIOUS

From southernliving.com
  • German Chocolate Cake. Despite what you may think when reading the name, this cake got its start in Dallas, Texas, in the 1950s. It remains just as popular today and is in the running for the title of the most Southern cake of all time.
  • Peach Cobbler. For Southerners, making peach cobbler in the summer is like breathing. First, it comes naturally. Second, it's absolutely necessary. The ooey, gooey dish full of sweet, stewed fruit happens to also be mighty easy.
  • Chocolate Delight. We've heard that this chocolate dessert is often referred to as many different names but no matter what you call it we guarantee it will be delightful.
  • Luscious Lemon Bars. When you attend a shower, tea, or any kind of luncheon in the South, we bet there will be a platter of lemon bars on the table. Plus, they can be made ahead and frozen for up to one month so you can keep them prepared for any last-minute guests.
  • Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake. All Southern cooks agree on one thing: Duke's was sent from above. Not only does it bind together our favorite spreads (like pimiento cheese and chicken salad) but it is the secret to the most moist chocolate cake in our region.
