Some days just call for something cold, simple, and easy.
Sweet tea has a way of showing up right on time—no extra effort, no complicated steps, just a smooth, refreshing drink that does exactly what you need it to do.
This version keeps things light and flexible. You can make it a little sweeter, a little stronger, or keep it soft and mellow. It all works.
Simple Sweet Tea
- 2–3 tea bags
- 4 cups hot water
- 1–2 tablespoons sweetener (adjust to taste)
- ice
How to make it:
- Steep the tea in hot water for a few minutes
- Remove the tea bags and let it cool slightly
- Stir in sweetener while the tea is still warm
- Pour over ice and serve
Add a slice of lemon if you like, or keep it just as it is.
Sometimes simple really is enough.
