OK, this is my new summer drink, folks!!!
First, ya gotta have simple syrup, because sugar doesn't dissolve in cold iced tea. (And it's easier to use)
Simple syrup:
2 c sugar (again, I use Splenda)
1 c water
Mix sugar and water together in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cook for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temp.
I usually keep this in an old pint liquor bottle (Ran through dishwasher after each use, of course) and with a 1 ounce bar pourer closing up neck of bottle.
