	  <h1>alex's iced tea</h1>
	  <p>recipes online are a disaster. I want recipes written by people. Here is one that I developed through trial and error over the course of about a month and 6 batches of tea. I like my tea to be lightly sweet and about average strength.</p>
	  <ol>
		  <li>Acquire a container that holds about 8 ounces. I have a large ball mason jar.
		  </li>
		  <li>Acquire some tea. I think for iced tea, which we are adding stuff too, bagged tea is preferable to loose leaf. I picked up some relatively <a href="https://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/product/365-by-whole-foods-market-organic-black-tea-49-oz-b074j5twyl">cheap tea</a> from Whole Foods and it works quite well.</li>
		  <li>Add 8 ounces of water to your container and 8 bags of tea</li>
		  <li>Steep the tea cold overnight. 8-12 hours (it doesn't have to be precise)</li>
		  <li>Remove tea bags, squeeze 1/2 medium lemon and add juice.</li>
		  <li>Add 64g white sugar</li>
		  <li>Enjoy iced!</li>
	  </ol>
	  Side note, for ice, I love an old-school vintage all stainless steel ice tray. Look them up, they don't leave any flavor on the ice, are super easy and satisfying to use, and are extremely durable!
