Re: In need of KT small recipe

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I'm no expert, but I usually use 1 tea bag per 2 cups of water, so would

use 4 tea bags in your recipe. The recipe in the files calls for 5-6

tea bags per gallon. I like the stronger flavor, though. I have seen

recipes call for anywhere between 1 to 1 2/3 cups of sugar per gallon,

so the 1/2 cup sugar seems pretty good for a half gallon of KT, but you

could go with more. I'd probably cut back on the tea bags, but

otherwise try the recipe as it says and see how you like it.
