In the South, you can’t have a garden party—or any summer get-together, for that matter—without sweet tea. This is a sweet tea-based cocktail with a kick of white whiskey. In the summer, the easiest brewing method is to combine the tea and water in a large glass jar or pitcher, cover the top, and leave it in the sun for a few hours. If you don’t have time to make sun tea, you can of course pour hot water over the teabag. Or, if you have a cold-brewing device, you could put it to use in this recipe. Author Anne Stiles Quantrano suggests a ratio of 1 ounce bagged tea to a gallon of water. When removing the tea bag from the water, use tongs or a slotted spoon. And never squeeze the bag back into the tea when removing it, as that can cause bitterness.
