Can I substitute splenda for the sugar?

Oh yes. You can use any sweetener you would like but if you are making the simple syrup it might not work as well. I’m not sure.

Especially the peach flavored tea sounds really delicious. I have always added artificially flavored peach juice to my tea to get the flavor but I am definitely going to try this instead.

Can I brew the tea bags then let them sit and use them?
Reply
- Jill
Not quite sure on your question but if you mean can you brew the tea with the tea bags, let them set out then use them again, you can. The tea won’t be quite as strong. If you are meaning can you brew and let the bags set in the tea you can do that too. I leave my teabags in the tea all the time but some people don’t like to do that.

Hi Jill/Tawra, what are family sized tea bags? I’m from the UK and we just have tea bags in one size – enough for a mug/cup of tea.
Reply
- Jill
Karlene a family size tea bag here makes a big pitcher full – about 1-2 liters (or quarts) so usually if it calls for 1 family size bag you can use 3-4 of the size bags that you guys have – depending on how strong you like your tea. Hope that helps.

I do the refrigerator iced tea all the time. My sister’s friend taught us. We use different kinds of tea. So easy, inexpensive and good.

I make the refrigerator tea as well, but I use 4 bags to a half gallon of water. It’s so easy, good and inexpensive. It comes out clear, never cloudy and has a crisp taste. Sometimes I use flavored teas. Peppermint is very refreshing.

HI,
How long would the peach syrup last in the fridge?
I am the only one who would like peach tea.
So, I would brew my tea bag in the morning, once cooled put in the fridge and later have a peach tea!Reply
- Jill
It will last a week to 10 days in the fridge. You can cut the recipe in half too. Also you can freeze it. You could freeze just the peach syrup in individual portions and then make you tea and pop 1 portion into the tea.
