   My family likes unsweetened ice tea as well and I have always used Luzianne Reg. or Decaf. family sized tea bags. 4 bags in 2 cups water, 4 minutes in microwave. I put a saucer on top after to steep (if I remember) or just come back to your microwave later and mix the concentrate with 6-8 cups water. I put water in pitcher first so the tea wont be foamy on top.
   You can also add or replace one bag with an Earl Grey (the small one). This tastes alot like Starbuck’s Black Tea. It has a little “bitter?” bite to it that is good with a slice of lime or lemon.

   A refreshing tea that we enjoy either hot or cold is homemade “Sun Tea”. To 6 cups of water add one tea bag of your choice (rooibos is a yummy de cafe choice) then place your pitcher out on the porch in the sun. Have it covered to make sure the dog and cat can’t get at it or any fly’s go for a swim. Leave it to steep until desired flavor, usually a 2-4 hours. Then pour over ice cubes and enjoy. The sweet version to this is a family favorite and just add 2/3 cup of lemon juice and 2/3 cup sugar stir and enjoy!

   I love cornbread and make several different recipes but here is a sweet recipe that I thought turned out pretty good!
   As for tea sweet enough to put a diabetic into a coma is what my husband says mine is but it is good without the sugar as well – I use Lipton iced tea bags (1 family size) and 2 cups of water, put in the microwave for 5 minutes, let stand for a few minutes than add enough water to fill up a 2 qt pitcher!
