ICED SOUTHERN  

SWEET TEA

A staple in any Southern household,  

Cuisinart’s Sweet Tea is a perfect companion  

on a hot summer day.

Makes one 8-ounce (227 g) serving

 bags black tea  

(or three servings loose tea)

 Water

cup (250 ml) ice cubes

¼ 

cup (60 ml) simple syrup*

1.  Put tea in a small bowl. Put at least  

10 ounces (284 g) of water into your 

kettle and select the Black setting. Pour 

8 ounces (227 g) of the hot water over 

tea and let steep 3 to 5 minutes. Strain. 

Refrigerate tea until chilled.

2.  Put the ice in a tall glass. Pour the 

chilled, steeped tea over the ice and  

stir in the simple syrup. Adjust sweetness 

to taste.

*  While you can purchase simple syrup at 

gourmet shops, it is easy to make at home 

(and less expensive). To prepare, add 

equal parts granulated sugar and water to 

a small saucepan set over medium-low 

heat. Let mixture heat until all of the sugar 

has dissolved. Cool mixture to room 

temperature.

Keep Warm function is  

not working

The Keep Warm function is the default setting;  

the LED light indicates whether it is on or off.

Err is displayed on the LCD and 

all the lights are flashing

The water level in the kettle is too low for heating.  

To avoid damaging the heating element, remove  

the kettle from base, add water, return it to the base, 

then recover to normal "power on" model with  

ON/OFF indicator light.

I pressed the wrong  

temperature button

Change your selection at any time by simply  

pressing the  + or -  button. When the LCD  

stops flashing, and you hear the beep sound,  

the selected temperature has been reached.

Water is taking longer  

than usual to heat

Several variables can affect heat-up time, including room 

temperature, how much water is in the kettle, and the 

temperature of the water. If you’ve recently heated water 

to a higher temperature than your  

current selection, the kettle will appear to be  

heating, but is actually waiting for water to cool down. 

Add cold water to speed up the process.
