I've read in a lot of other places it's best to steep for 4 mins not 2. 1/2 cup of sugar doesn't seem sweet enough. I agree with most that it takes 1 to 1 and a 1/2 cups to sweeten. Another little trick for those that don't know is to use tea bags for canker sores or tooth aches in your mouth. Black Tea (like lipton) works best. Tea has a natural sedative that heals the pain in your mouth. I've done this twice and it works like a charm, better than canker sore medicine that only numbs your mouth for about 10 mins and has a NASTY taste. The raw tea bag is a nasty taste too but it works.

I mean every point I made in my version, someone had an issue with. I don't I wrote a radically poor way of making tea, but rather, this is such a personal topic, that it people feel the need to respond.
