Sonny--

Well, I should have known that you'd beat me to the punch! And with Luzianne
tea, too! Lawd.

Where I come from, we don't boil the tea bags. We boil the water (if you're
a highbrow water drinker, use bottled or filtered), pour it to about 1 1/2
inches below the top of a 32-ounce container with the bags (if you don't
have Luzianne, or Tetley family size bags, and are a buyer of high-brow
teas, then use about 7 bags of Orange Pekoe), and let it steep for about 5-7
minutes. I take out the tea bags, and then I put the sugar in and stir it
up. Add either water to fill or ice cubes. After it sits awhile and cools
off, I then put it in the fridge and let it get nice 'n cold. Then serve
over ice. Yum!

I'll bet Bill has a recipe, too, since he's in Mississippi.

Now, how about fried catfish? Do you have a good recipe for that, Sonny?
It's gotta have cornmeal in it ... ;-)

  Sweet Tea  (not sweetened tea)

(Use Luzianne Tea Bags if you can)

Put two cups of water and three family size tea bags in a pot and get
it to boil. Take it off the fire and let it steep a while.

Pour warm tea into empty pitcher. Add one cup of sugar and stir it
till the sugar is dissolved.

Pour it in a pitcher and almost fill it with cold water.

Put some ice in your glass and pour yourself a glassful and relax.

Sonny
