My nana used to make this in huge batches and gift them to neighbors in mason jars! Now I’m doing the same

Ingredients
1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
1 cup granulated sugar (or to taste)
4 black tea bags, preferably Orange Pekoe or other robust black tea
1 gallon of water, divided
Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Lemon slices for garnish (optional)

Preparation
1. In a small pot, combine half a cup of water and sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.
2. Add the strawberries to the syrup and return to a simmer, then reduce heat and let the mixture cook for about 10 minutes, until the strawberries are soft and have released their color.
