Tea was just tea, never called southern tea and god forbid the word “unsweetened” be said. Just wasn’t done. Tea has sugar, end of story! I was taught to fill a regular pot, that ended up being the one only used for making tea, around half full of cold water, never measured, and as soon as the water started boiling, take it off the stove and drop in 6 regular size tea bags that you tied the strings in a knot together and pulled off tags. Don’t really have too but you could use a lid if you didn’t want to fish out the teabags, just hang the strings over the edge of pot and set lid on to keep them dropping in water. No good or bad either way. Put somewhere between 2/3 to a cup of sugar in a gallon pitcher and wait until tea water ready. After the tea has been steeping around 15 or so minutes, but before it gets cold, gently squeeze the tea bags against pot with a spoon to get all the good tea flavor in the water. Remove bags and pour into the pitcher, stir, set in the “frigealator”, what my granddaughter called it, until cold and serve in a glass full of ice. Everyone always said I made the best tea. It’s tea bags, sugar and water. How can you get that wrong?

The reasons for using cold water as I have been told is that using hot tap water may add some sediments from the water heater. There by effecting the taste.

Maureen,

I’m sure you could order Luzianne online but the shipping would cost a small fortune. I hope you’re on the mend now. You’ve been sick for quite some time.

I don’t know why we should start with cold water but I’m sure there’s a reason. I always use cold water too when filling the pot. It’s winter but I could happily drink a jug of this right now.
