Brandon Elliott
If you are someone in need of a refreshing drink in under 10 minutes, this is for you. Here are the things you need, plus the steps to make iced tea in a microwave.

Needed items:
-Tea Bags
-Water
-Microwave
-Sweetener (optional)
-Tea Pitcher
-Small Tupperware container and lid

Step 1: Take the tupperware container and fill it with about 4 cups of water. (It doesn't matter if it's hot or cold.)

Step 2: Set the container of water in the microwave and microwave for approximately 3 minutes.

Step 3: Take the container out and set it on a counter. Be careful, because it will be very hot.

Step 4: Put the tea bags in the container and push them down into the water with a spoon. Put the lid on and wait for 5-10 minutes.

Step 5: The water should now be dark brown. Take the tea bags out and pour the tea into the tea pitcher. Add 1 1/2 cups of sugar if you wish.

Step 6: Add water until the tea pitcher is full.

Step 7: Add ice and enjoy your refreshing iced tea :)
