In a large pot, place the 2 cups of dried Jamaica and 8 cups of water.
Over medium high heat, bring it to a soft boil for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat.
Add the sugar and stir well until all of the sugar is dissolved.
Add the remaining of the water and let it cool (I let mine sit overnight covered on my counter since I like it to have a strong flavor!).
Strain. Taste for sugar and water and add more if necessary.
Refrigerate until ready to use. Serve over ice.
