Hi !!!
I hope that this is helpful to you.
How to Make Sun Tea
Difficulty: Easy
Capture summer in a jar by brewing tea in the warmth of the sun.
Things You'll Need
sugars
cheesecloth
teas bags or loose tea
lemons
limes
saucepans
strainers
mesh tea balls
glass storage jars
Instructions
STEP 1: Choose a clear glass jar that can hold the amount of tea you want to make and has a working lid. STEP 2: Fill the jar with cold water. STEP 3: Select your tea - either bags or loose tea. Four tea bags or 4 tsp. tea will make 4 c. of sun tea. STEP 4: For loose tea, either use a tea ball, tie the tea up in a little cheesecloth, or decide not to use anything (which means you'll have to strain the tea). STEP 5: Put the tea bags or loose tea in the water. Close the lid. STEP 6: Set the jar in the sun. STEP 7: In an hour, check the tea's strength and color. If you used loose tea without a container, strain the tea. STEP 8: Pour over ice and enjoy. Tips & Warnings
Add lemon, lime and simple syrup - made with two parts water to one part sugar and boiled - or mint to taste. (You can add granulated sugar instead of syrup, but it doesn't dissolve as well.)
If you leave tea bags in the water too long, the tea will be bitter.
-----------AND ...
Brewing the tea
Here we go! It's time to make the tea. First make sure you have everything ready. Let's double-check what you need:
Tea
Water
Tea Kettle
Teapot
Infuser (from the teapot, or some other straining device)
Teacup
Once you're sure you have everything ready, just follow these steps:
1. Start Heating Water: Put some water in your tea kettle and turn it on. How much water? Well how much tea are you making? Put in that much water, plus a little extra. The tea will soak up and hang onto some of the water, so you need a little extra. While the water heats, go on to step 2.
2. Preheat Teapot: Run your tap water until it's good and hot. Then fill the teapot. Fill the teacup while you're at it. Set them both aside. The idea here is that you're pre-heating them. If they're cold when you add the boiling water, then some of the water's heat will be used to heat up the teapot, making the water colder than desired. This is especially important with an iron teapot. Iron conducts heat easily. If it's cold, it will quickly suck heat from the water. Some folks swirl some of the boiling water from the kettle in the teapot and then discard it immediately before adding the tea. I don't like this method. The water in the tea kettle either cools during this period, or keeps boiling. Nether is desired.
3. Wait For The Boil: Be patient. It shouldn't be long now. Shortly before the water comes to a boil, follow these steps in a brisk manner: Pour the water out of the teapot. Give it a quick blotting with a paper towel, if you like. (I do.)
Add tea to the teapot. Approximately 1 heaping teaspoon per 8 ounces of water. (That's why it's called a teaspoon.) Use a real measuring teaspoon. For stronger tea, add some extra. Experiment to find what you like.
Add the water to the teapot. If you're making black or herbal tea, let the water come to a real boil. For green teas, try to catch it a little before boiling. (You'll know the water is about to boil because the noise from the kettle will get both quieter and deeper shortly before the boil.) Or turn the kettle off when the water boils and let it cool a bit. Whatever you do, don't let the water keep boiling for any length of time.
4. Steep for the appropriate amount of time: For green tea, steep for 2-3 minutes. I stop at 2 minutes. For black teas, 3-5 minutes. I stop at 3. For herbal teas, 5 minutes or more. Longer steeping times make for stronger tea. But they also make for bitter tea. (Except for herbal teas, which aren't real teas.) If you want stronger tea, increase the amount of tea you use. Don't steep longer.
5. Ready The Teacup: After the steeping time is up, discard the hot water from the teacup. Actually, you can pour this water over the infuser to quickly heat up the infuser, too.
6. Pour The Tea: Pour the tea, through the infuser, into the teacup. Put the infuser into the teapot, so it doesn't make a mess.
7. Drink: Drink the tea, duh.
8. Clean Up: Clean up after yourself. Used tea leaves can be composted, or just run down the disposal. Rinse everything off and put it away. (Well, don't rinse off your tea. Geez, c'mon people, think!) Or, better yet, make more tea.

Put about 4 cups cold water in a pan and add 10 tea bags. Bring just to a boil. Remove from heat and pour into 1 gallon pitcher which you have added 2 cups of sugar to. Mix hot tea until sugar dissolves. Add enough cold water to fill up tea pitcher and stir to mix thoroughly. Put ice cubes in glass and fill with tea. Enjoy!! This recipe is for Hoosier Sweet Tea.

I have a coffee perculator at home that we use from the 70's ( it has the steel basket & rod that you line up in the bottom) I take 3 family size round tea bags & layer in basket. Fill to line with cold water & let perculate. When finished, pour into large pitcher & add 1 cup sugar. Stir to disolve sugar, then add water while stirring to fill pitcher. Chill in fridge & serve over ice.
