Boston Iced Tea

From , former About.com Guide

A wonderfully tart recipe for cranberry iced tea. The name comes from the cranberry bogs in the Boston area (so I've been told by a few readers). Regardless, it's a very refreshing drink for a summer's day.

Ingredients:

  • 4 quarts water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 15 tea bags
  • 12 oz frozen cranberry juice concentrate

Preparation:

Heat water to boiling, and add sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Add tea bags, remove from heat and let steep for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove tea bags, and add cranberry juice concentrate.

Stir until melted and mixed, then allow to cool to room temperate before refrigerating. Serve over ice.
