Name: Mom's Iced Tea
Ingredients: 10 Tea bags; 1 c Sugar; Water; Ice

Longsuffering, forbearing patience is to be the Christian’s reflection of the character of God. It is part of God’s character to be slow to anger and quick to be merciful. Part of the incomprehensibility of God in terms of my own relationship with Him is this: I cannot fathom how a holy God has been able to put up with me marring His creation to the degree I have for three score and five years. For me to live another day requires a continuation of God’s gracious patience with my sin… It becomes even more difficult to fathom when we see a sinless Being being more patient with sinful beings that sinful beings are with each other.

INSTRUCTIONS

1.    Boil about 4-5 cups of the water.  Steep the tea bags for 2-5 min.
2.    Remove the tea bags and dissolve the sugar in the hot tea.
3.    Transfer the sweetened tea to a gallon container (we always used a
well-rinsed out milk jug) and fill with cold water and/or ice.  Serve over
more ice. Notes: Yeah, its alot, but it goes fast. You can also use fewer
tea bags (around 4-5) and steep them longer (a half hour) for "Aunt Nancy's
Ice Tea"(tm)
:).  Sugar is to taste and can be freely adjusted.  I use decaffinated tea
bags here at school and it tastes the same to me.  Never tried artifical
sweeteners - but I don't see why they wouldn't work.  Just add them last,
after the tea has cooled.
