Instructions
- Boil water. Meanwhile, measure out your tea.
- Put the tea into a drawstring tea bag.
- Put the tea bag into the mason jar. I suggest putting your sugar in at this point. I find once the hot water is in the jar, it creates condensation and the sugar can stick to the sides of the jar. Not fun!
- Pour hot water into the mason jar. I find filling it halfway is the best. Set your timer for the normal amount of time for the type of tea you're using.
- Remove the tea bag, squeezing out excess water.
- Throw a bunch of ice cubes into the jar, but don't fill it all the way up yet. This will make it easier to stir without making a mess.
- Stir the tea vigorously to allow it to cool down quickly. Once those cubes have dissolved or the tea is cooled down a lot, add more ice. I usually fill it right to the top with ice cubes at this point.
- Throw a straw into the jar and enjoy!
