Quicker Tea

In our house we don't drink coffee, but we go through iced tea like crazy. It takes so long for water to come to a boil on the stove, so I started making my tea differently. We bought a 10-cup coffee maker which makes tea a lot faster! I fill up the water to the 10-cup line and add my tea bags where the coffee filter would go (no filter needed for tea bags) and start it up. In no time we have tea!

RE: Quicker Tea

I've been making our tea this way for years! My 11 year old son can even do this easily without the risk of burning himself. Much easier and I didn't have to buy one of those expensive tea makers! :)

RE: Quicker Tea

I make my tea in the microwave. Using one family size bag, I placed two cups of water in a microwave safe/glass measuring cup and cooked until just until the bubbles of a boil begin - about 4 minutes in my old microwave. Note: do not boil/overcook as it makes the tea bitter. I let it steep for a few minutes, pour it into a pitcher and add cold water to suit my tea strength. Works great too. Mitzi
