Best Answer

You will need 12 regular tea bags, two pounds of sugar, boiling water and a gallon container.

Boil the water and put the tea bags into it. While it is still hot, disolve the sugar into the mixture, and let the bags steep until the mixture is lukewarm. Squeeze the teabags, pour the tea into a container and cool in the refrigerator. If there is too little tea, rinse the teabags in hot water to get more tea to pour into the original batch to top it off.

The key to the sweet tea is to get the sugar into it while it is still hot, then cool as quickly as possible. Do not dilute this tea, it is designed to be used over ice which will make it the right strength.

If you use three quarters cup of sugar per gallon to make sweet tea how many calories are in a 8 oz glass of sweet tea?

There are approximately 578 calories in 3/4 cup of sugar and no nutritional value (calories) in the tea, making 578 (approx.) calories in the entire gallon of sweet tea. There are 128 fl. oz. in a gallon, so there are 16 cups (8 fl. oz. glasses) in one gallon. Take the 578 calories from the gallon of sweetened tea divided by the 16 cups and you get the amount of calories in an 8 oz. glass. Formual broken down: 578 calories per gallon / 16 cups per gallon ~ 36 calories per cup.
