What You Should Know

You'd spot MILO'S Sweet Tea in the refrigerated beverage aisle, a cooler at a summer cookout, or grabbed for a road trip or gas-station pit stop. It carries a nostalgic, comforting Southern vibe—sweet and indulgent—but as a ready-to-drink, pasteurized and packaged beverage with added cane sugar it reflects industrial processing (smooth, shelf-stable texture and high free-sugar content), consistent with ultra-processed product characteristics.

Common Questions about Sweet Tea, 128 FZ

Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective, right? MILO'S Sweet Tea is made with filtered water, pure cane sugar, and tea, so it's definitely a refreshing option. That said, it has 26 grams of sugar per serving, which is on the higher side, so if you're watching your sugar intake, you might want to enjoy it in moderation.
