Fresh Mint Iced Tea


3 cups water
7 tea bags*
3 to 6 sprigs of mint
1 cup granulated sugar**
1 (6 ounce) can frozen lemonade

In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Remove from the heat and drop in the tea bags and mint sprigs. Allow to steep 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and discard the tea bags and mint sprigs. Stir in the sugar and lemonade. Chill again or serve over ice cubes.

Makes about 3 cups; 1 cup per serving.
