Sweet Southern Mint Iced Tea

By: Julia Mangan

I made this up one day for a small dinner party and it was a hit!

8 cups water
3 Bigelow brand Plantation Mint tea bags
3/4 cup white sugar

In a large saucepan, heat water to a rapid boil. Remove from heat and drop in the tea bags and sugar. Cover and let steep for 1 hour. Pour into pitcher and refrigerate until chilled or serve immediately with lots of ice cubes.

I have tried other mint tea bags but they just weren't as good. It really has to be the Plantation Mint from Bigelow.
