Introduction

This is a recipe my granny's friend from Florida gave me more than 15 years ago. It was the first sweet tea I actually liked. It tastes better (although similar) than most of the store bought brands here in the North. This recipe has ingredients and nutritional value for two batches through a 10-cup coffee maker.
