Southern as sweet tea! Growing up in the South, I thought everyone liked their tea sweet. If you prefer yours a little less sweet, decrease the amount of erythritol to 1/2 cup.
• 1 gallon filtered water, divided
• 4 family-sized bags black tea
• ¾ cup granular erythritol
• 5 drops liquid stevia
• Ice, for serving
• Lemon wedges, for garnish (optional)
1. In a large saucepan, bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the tea bags. Allow to steep for 20 minutes. Pour the other 2 quarts of water into a gallon-sized pitcher.
2. Remove the tea bags and squeeze them. Stir in both sweeteners until they are completely dissolved. Pour the concentrated tea mixture into the pitcher and stir to combine.
3. Serve over ice in tall, 16-ounce glasses garnished with lemon wedges. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
