When you make sun tea when do you add the sugar?

Question

Ill be using a gallon size jar. How much sugar? and when do I put the sugar in?

Answer 1

The amount of sugar you use depends on how sweet you like it. I put 1.5 cups of sugar in mine. Start with a cup & go from there, tasting it & seeing if its sweet enough for you. & you add the sugar after it's already brewed (when you bring it inside).

Answer 2

we always did...7 tea bags in one of the huge jars. when it was done we'd add like 6-10 packets of sweetener  instead of sugar it tasted good and was better for ya. but you could add sugar i'd start with one cup see what you like.   when we make "sweet tea" we put water in a pan on the stove and some tea bags, let  it boil and then add a cup of sugar  stir and then chill before serving.

Answer 3

after its done in the sun-idk how much u like-start with 2 cups n add from there--i like it super sweet.
