I grew up on this type of iced tea. Once the tea was brewed, my mother would pour it into a 2-gallon stone crock (that had a lid), add the sugar and the additional water and leave it sitting on the kitchen counter. We would ladle room temperature tea over a glass full of ice and it was a summer "treat".
