What You Should Know

You’d typically find this bottled sweet tea in the refrigerated drinks case, convenience stores, or packed in coolers for BBQs and road trips—grab-and-go for hot afternoons. It carries a nostalgic, comforting Southern-summer vibe: sweet, chilled and indulgent. Despite the short ingredient list (filtered water, cane sugar, fresh-brewed tea), being a ready-to-drink, industrially bottled sweetened beverage implies pasteurization/bottling and concentrated free sugars with no fiber, which are hallmarks of packaged processing.
