I don't know why. I love it. Every time I've traveled to the South, I pretty much drink nothing else. I always make some comment along the lines of, "I really should figure out how to make this." I probably have sweet tea running through my veins.
Duh. It's so easy. I feel like a complete idiot for not doing this sooner. For some untold reason, I thought it was hard to make sweet tea. For years I've been buying iced tea mixes and believing sweet tea to be some mythical nectar I could only procure on my travels south.
No more, I tell you! For it is beyond easy to make sweet tea, and here is how you do it!
