Sun tea should be brought in, the tea bags removed and refrigerated by the end of the day. If you leave the tea bags in there is a possibility of mold, particularly if you do not refrigerate it.

Though it seems safe, sun tea often has harmful bacteria in it. This bacteria is not fatal, but it can make you sick. The warm temperature of the sun tea creates an ideal environment for this bacteria to flourish.
-Instead, try making refrigerator tea! Instead of placing the container of water and tea bags out in the sun, put in the fridge for 6-8 hrs!! It works (I've tried it)

Making sure your tea is properly boiled before drinking (or refrigeration if you aim to make cold/iced tea) should eliminate most of the bacteria.

Where can you buy a glass sun tea jar?
You don't have to buy a special jar to make sun tea.......use a clean pickle jar! ANSWER: Letting tea bags sit in the sun really isn't the safest way to make tea. Tea can become unsafe to drink if left out too long, and the process used in making sun tea is ideal for breeding of dangerous bacteria. Brew your tea the usual way, with boiling water, and then refrigerate it to be sure of its safety for consumption.
