Fill the water reservoir of your coffee maker with 6 cups of water.

Start the coffee maker and allow the water to heat and drip over the tea bags in the coffee pot below.
Once the brewing cycle is complete, let the tea bags steep in the hot water in the pot for an additional 2-3 minutes to intensify the flavor.
Remove the tea bags from the coffee pot using a spoon to avoid burns. Gently press them against the side of the pot to extract any remaining liquid, then discard them.
If desired, stir in sweetener and/or milk to taste while the tea is still hot.
Pour the brewed tea into cups and serve warm, or let it cool and pour over ice for a refreshing iced tea.
