Answers: A sweet and fruity iced tea recipe. I really think that iced tea is thoroughly improved by adding a good dose of fresh summer honey. Sweet and smooth.

This is how we make tea in my family...
Take 4 or 5 family sized tea bags and place in a glass 4-cup measuring cup. Fill the measuring cup to the 4-cup line with water. Place in the microwave for 4:30minutes. While it is microwaving, place 26-30 sweetner packets into a 1 gallon pitcher. After the microwave is done, allow the tea bags and water to steep for another few minutes (10 minutes max, I'd say). Then pour the tea from the measuring cup into the pitcher. Add additional water until the pitcher is full & stir.
I live on ice tea. Right now my favorite is 3 family size bags of regular tea and 3 small bags of peach tea. I let it steep for about 20 minutes. Add my sugar and fill the container with ice. Then I finish filling it with cold water. It makes about a gallon.
