Step 1
In a medium pot over high heat, bring 1 quart of cold water to a boil. Add the tea bags, then immediately remove the pot from the heat. Set aside to steep at room temperature for 4 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, in a half-gallon pitcher or jar, stir together 1 quart of cold water and the sugar. Remove and discard the tea bags, then pour the hot tea into the pitcher. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. (Adding the hot tea to the cold sugar water, rather than the other way around, helps keep the tea clear and preserves its flavor.) Refrigerate until chilled.
Step 3
To serve, pour over ice and garnish with lemon wedges, if desired.
