  • You can cut this recipe in half and bake in a 10 x 14 pan. If you use this

Title: Jimmy's Iced Tea
Categories: Beverage
Yield: 8 Servings

3 Family size tetly tea bags
-(substitute three regular
-bags for each "family
-size")
5 c Almost boiling water
9 1/2 Grains saccharin tablets
or-
9 Packets of Equal/Nutrisweet
1/3 c Sugar
Sprig of peppermint leaf
-(optional)

Following is my Dad's recipe for iced tea, made with artificial sweetener
and in quantity, for Southerners who drink it three times a day.

Add tea bags to near-boiling water; steep 10 minutes or longer. Pour tea
off, rinse bags with additional cold water so as not to waste any tea. Add
saccharin and sugar.

Pour individual, ice-filled glasses 1/4 to 1/3 full of tea and adjust
strength by judging color while adding water and tea as desired. Further
adjustments may be made by adding sugar and/or lemon juice as appropriate.

Note: Tea seems to be better if water is heated in stainless pan, rather
than heavy aluminum.

A sprig of peppermint leaf really tops it off quite well!
