Simple Syrup & Sweet Tea

Another summer staple, whether your southern or not, is Sweet Tea.
First, you have to make simple syrup. Super simple, hence the name. Bring 2 cups of cold water to a boil. Bring the heat down to low & stir in 2 cups of sugar. Stir constantly until sugar dissolved. Cool to room temperature & then keep refrigerated.
Once you have your simple syrup, sweet tea is even easier. Make a pitcher of Iced tea. Then mix about 85% iced tea & 15% symple syrup & you're done.
