How to Make Fresh Iced Tea

1. Measure and boil four cups of water.
2. Measure out 3 scant tablespoons of looseleaf tea into large filters.
3. Brew leaves for four minutes.
4. Remove leaves and pour hot tea over 4 cups of ice.
5. Add 1/4 cup of sugar. (optional)
6. Chill.

Correction: The amount of tea depends on the type. The rule of thumb is to use twice as much as you would for hot tea. The ice melts and doubles the amount of water in the cup. — Erik
