Bobbers Not Too Sweet Raspberry Ice Tea Recipes

Steps:

• While tea is steeping, place sugar in 1 gallon container.

• Add about 3 quarts of cold/ice water to 1 gallon container, (leave a little room for the syrup) -- stir well.
• Last, add 3/8 cup raspberry syrup to entire mixture and stir well. (Adding the syrup to the 1 quart of concentrated hot tea earlier results in a slight bitterness I did not like).
• Place in refrigerator until well chilled, serve over ice -- Enjoy!

Steps:

• Put the tea bags in an 8-cup measuring cup or heat safe bowl. Boil the water, pour it over the tea bags, and allow to steep for at least 10 minutes. Allow to cool and remove tea bags.

• Combine the tea and raspberry sugar syrup, to taste. Put ice into 4 (12-ounce) glasses. To each squeeze in a wedge of lime, pour sugared tea over, and garnish with a sprig of mint.
