-GA Sweet Tea
Growing up in GA, sweet tea was a staple at our house!
Mama's sweet tea was wonderful, but I have to confess, I never really liked my tea, until now!!!
You'll see baking soda on the list, this takes the "bitterness" away!
Also, I make this in my rubbermaid pitcher, but it's very pretty in a glass pitcher.
Perfect for Holiday Meals!
Warning ... this is sweet!!!
