    Southern Sweet Iced Tea,This is how my Granny made sweet tea and it is some kind of sweet. Know that and beware. Pa-Paw used to down 2-3 glasses after working in the garden all day. Back off the sugar if you can’t handle it. This one is for true southerners only ;),My grandma use to make her tea like this except she would boil her tea bags and add a pinch of baking soda and 3cups of sugar and I’m telling y’all was the best Southern Tea I’ve ever had in my life and I’m 41 years old and still haven’t found a better tea recipe as of yet….,What does the baking soda do? Why not squeeze tea bags?
