For any of the flavors, boil the water in a large saucepan. When the
water comes to a rapid boil, turn off heat, put the tea bags into the
water, and cover. After the tea has brewed about 1 hour, pour the sugar
or sweetener into 2-quart pitcher, then add the tea. The tea should
still be warm, so the sugar or sweetener will dissolve easily. Add the
flavoring ingredients (plus additional water if needed to bring the tea
to the 2-quart line). Chill
