Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 7

Makes about 2/3 gallon.
12 cups of water
2 cinnamon sticks
1.5 tsp. pumpkin pie spice - you can make this yourself! (recipe here!)
1 cup of sugar for very sweet, 1/2-3/4 cup for sweet
8 teabags (I use Earl Grey)
Half & Half (1 tbsp. per cup of tea)

Steps:

  • Hot
  • In a large pot, bring 12 cups of water to a boil and then reduce to a low simmer.
  • Add cinnamon sticks and pumpkin pie spice and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Turn off the heat, remove the cinnamon sticks and steep teabags in the hot water for 7 minutes.
  • Remove the teabags and add the sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Ladle the tea into mugs and add 1 tbsp. half and half per mug. Stir and serve with a cinnamon stick and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
  • Cold
  • Repeat steps 1-4 from the Hot instructions.
  • Let the tea cool to room temperature and then pour it into a large pitcher to store in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Serve black or with 1 tbsp. half and half and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
