Step 1

To make the iced tea vodka- pour vodka into a glass jar or container and add in tea bags. Cold brew bags work great for this but regular bags will work too, they just take longer. Cold brew bags will be ready in half an hour, regular tea bags take a couple hours. Remember, you are trying to make a concentrate. The finished color should be dark amber like a very strong black tea. Discard the bags and seal the jar back up, or transfer back into the empty vodka bottle.

Step 2

To make the simple syrup- combine water and sugar in a small pan over low heat, stirring until dissolved. Use the syrup to sweeten the vodka to taste.
