Microwave Sweet Tea image

Making tea on the stove is easy enough but even easier in the microwave, so why not? I have a strainer that is the perfect size to fit in the top of my gallon pitcher so that it makes it a snap to strain the tea bags over the sugar without worrying about busting the bags. Adding a slice of lemon to my glass of iced tea adds the perfect touch.

This sweet tea recipe is a lifesaver! I'm a huge fan of sweet tea, but I hate having to wait for it to brew. This microwave method is so quick and easy, and the tea tastes just as good as if I had brewed it the traditional way.
