Cowboy Sweet Iced Tea

This homemade sweet tea is cowboy-approved and ranch-ready—sweet, bold, and ice-cold. We keep a pitcher in the fridge all summer long for those hot afternoons on the porch.

Ingredients

• black tea bags - Lipton or 365 brands are my favorite
• white sugar - honey is a great substitute
