Tea Up

Soft Drinks cost a ton and are pretty unhealthy. The wife and I have a drink of choice that has been around for centuries: tea! We make a ton of the stuff and drink it with meals and pretty much whenever we are thirsty.

We purchased a cheap coffee pot to brew our tea. We buy the family-sized tea bags and brew up a pot by placing 2 of these where the coffee grounds go. After the pot is full we take the tea bags out and place them directly in the pot to let them steep. We then add the contents of the pot to a gallon jug, sugar it up to taste, and place it in the fridge.

If you like to shake things up with your teas you can always try Adagio Teas - Free Teapot Offer
for an awesome variety.

Since we have 3 kids we usually keep three gallons at a time in the fridge. This is a cheap and easy way to quench the families thirst!
