How to Make Lipton Sweet Tea

Sweet tea is the classic beverage to pair with Southern favorites such as barbecue and chicken-fried anything. You can also enjoy sweet tea as a casual afternoon pick-me-up. The process of making Lipton sweet tea is more than just adding a dangerous amount of sugar to already brewed tea; it begins on the stove top. By making your own Lipton sweet tea, you can have your sweet tea anytime you like.

Things You'll Need

  • Medium-sized pot with lid
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 4 family-sized or 9 regular-sized teabags
  • Wooden spoon
  • Gallon container

Instructions

  1. Pour 2 cups of water into the pot and place the pot over a stove burner. Turn on the burner to medium high.

  2. Wait for the water to start simmering, and then stir in the sugar. Wait for the water to boil and for the sugar to dissolve.

  3. Remove the pot from the burner and add the teabags to the pot, submerging them into the water with a wooden spoon.

  4. Secure the lid on the pot and allow the tea to steep anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple of hours, depending on desired strength.

  5. Remove the teabags with the spoon and pour the contents of the pot into a container. Top the container with cold water and stir. Serve on ice or refrigerate.
