    • 7 tea bags for a tea pot (where you might normally use 2 or 3. Brew for an hour. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of sugar while warm and the juice of one lemon and the lemon itself. Stir well and pour over a pitcher of just ice. Add water or more ice if it is too strong. Adjust the next time as needed.

    • I make sun tea. biggest vessel I can find. I measure it out and generally do about 1 teabag per 6 oz of water...then I throw 1 more in for good measure. Fill the pitcher with warmish water (I just do it from the tap) throw the bags in, and put it in the sunniest place you have thats sunniest the longest. If you want a flavored tea do go and make a whole thing of raspberry tea....blech. I get the herbal rasp tea and put 1 or 2 bags in with the black tea (In addition to, so if you have 64 oz of water 11 bags, 1 for good measure, 1 to 2 rasp) I let it sit alllllll day.
