How sweet do you like your sweet tea?

@itsmerobinann 2 года назад

Decaf Lipton with Walmart brand Splenda. In my Mr coffee maker. I make several pots a day. 2 bags to one pot and that makes 2 pots.

@itsmerobinann 2 года назад

Family size tea bags. Not the huge ones.

We grew up drinking unsweetened tea. My mother drank hers unsweetened and when we were little we would steal sips from her glass. So she announced one day "If y'all can drink my unsweetened tea I'm not gonna put sugar in y'all's!" To this day, that's how I drink my iced tea. Hot tea I always add sugar and milk.

I used to make tea daily for about 20 years and then I quit. My girls got married and moved so just did not have the need anymore except holidays. But I make my tea the same way Paula. Yum!

@zzzzipy12 2 года назад

I’m a type 2 diabetic too, so no sugar sweet tea for me either. You do get used to the sugar replacements. I will say when Paula started pouring the hot tea into the Crystal pitcher, I did hold my breath, glad it didn’t shatter! ❤️ asked me how I know that happens!

artificial sweeteners are also bad, they still trigger a glucose response. Your best bet is unsweetened tea

@diamond6256 2 года назад

I grew up making Sweet Tea this very way, my Sweet Mama taught me. Since then. I started making it in the coffee pot, I cut my teas bags from 3 to 2, (to cut my caffeine and it eliminated my migraines) my sugar from 2 cups to 1-1/2. Once brewed I cut coffee maker off and let steep and cool somewhat. I make a gal. use half water and the other half is tea. Works great. I drink tea only for dinner. Water the rest of the time. I do this as my treat. On Fridays, I have ONE Dr Pepper which is my all time favorite as an end of the week treat. I still do this now retired at 66 in Texas. Our brand tea here is Lipton.

My father was a sweet tea nut. He could taste the paper from the tea bag and insisted mother make his tea from loose leaf tea. We decided to put him to the test to see if he could pick the tea bag tea or loose leaf tea. We made two pitchers, one of each type. Lined up 6 half glasses (marked) with ice and equal amounts of each tea. Holy moly, he could taste the paper! And side by side, I could also taste the paper (my dad called this phenomenon a whang taste) 😂Poor mom, her fine mesh tea strainer was the most valuable item in our home! It’s 65 years old and I STILL use it. 🕊✌️🇺🇸🌐Lady Rusted Knight

My sister lived in S Carolina she is the one that got me hooked on sweet tea. I am going to try it your way. Yum yum.

@jeremiahcomer 2 года назад

I’m so happy you use Luzianne tea! It is absolutely the best for southern style sweet tea! The best sugar substitute I have ever tried is called Bochasweet. It tastes the most like cane sugar. I bet Paula would prefer it over what’s she’s tried.

@staceysmith3775 2 года назад

Hi Miss Paula! My husband and I went to your restaurant (for the first time) last week in Tennessee. We had the best meal, however the highlight was the peach sweet tea! Best tea that I ever had! Also, when I make tea for company, I make simple syrup. That way everyone can choose how sweet they want their tea. 😊

@asweetnspicyginger2443 2 года назад

I do mine the same way miss Paula. Squeeze the bags and pour water over them to get every last drop. I just thought i was being frugal. 😂

@Moona1966 2 года назад

I've been having the WORST craving for some sweet tea! Miss Paula, I make it the exact same way you do, but without the mint. My family isn't much on the mint. Hope you and yours have a lovely weekend!

@FitforFiftyish 2 года назад

Yes! Luzianne tea is the only tea Ive bought FOR many many years. Hands down the best. I make 2 pitchers of sweet tea for the weekend and it’s gone by Monday. Love to hear Hubs say “Umph. That’s some good tea” 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Hey Paula, my grandma actually raised me (I called her mom) but she so loved watching you on tv. By the time I was an adult and go visit her all we would talk about was you and your recipes 🥰. But I’m not sure if she got this from you or who. But she would say “you know what tea is actually know as… Champaign of the south” That always cracked me up. Paula, I just want to thank you for providing all the recipients that lead to the most precious memories I have of my momma 🙏🥰 have a good day.

I steep a big sprig of sweet mint (not peppermint) with the tea bags. Love mint tea for hot FL summers!

@kaliwindx7287 2 года назад

My favorite tea is also Luzianne. It makes great ice tea. I am also diabetic and I use the little packets of sweetener rather than sugar and it comes out just fine. I love lemons so I’ll juice a lemon into my big pitcher of tea.

@melissaspencer632 2 года назад

I've always been a big fan of sweet tea. The first time we went to The Lady and Sons was when I first had it served with mint. We loved it!

@joyscranfield5527 2 года назад

We make tea the same way but I always use 1/3 cup sugar to a gallon & it does seem to get sweeter the longer it's made. Trying to encourage the grandchildren not to get so hooked on sugar. Love plenty of ice & lemon, too. Want a spoon of honey in cup of hot tea.

Luzianne is the best Tea for Sweet Tea …I’m from Tx I was raised on Luzianne I raised my family on on Luzianne …we don’t know any other way ….but after we steep it we remove the bags and melt the sugar in the pot …Then pour it directly over the ice in our pitcher and it’s perfect every time it’s a beautiful Golden color and tastes fresh for days but it never last that long n our house Much ❤️from TX y’all

@lindanorton5436 2 года назад

This Sweet Tea recipe looks so delicious and refreshing Paula. There's this one brand of Sweet Tea that I've heard about several times now called Y'all Sweet Tea. It's made in Alabama where Ms. Sue Garrett and Ms. Brenda Gantt are from. I've heard it tastes really good.

@gloriashepherd4448 2 года назад

Sammy hi I just bought my first box of y'all sweet tea. My husband is very picky about his tea but he absolutely loved y'all sweet tea. The one thing I noticed about it was when you add the sugar it doesn't go to the bottom after stirring there was no evidence of the sugar at the bottom of the pitcher. However you do have to follow the directions on the back to the letter. Try it you won't regret it. 👍😊

@janemartin229 2 года назад

I believe Luzianne says to add one family tea bag for 4 cups total water, which is only a quart. That would be 4 bags for a gallon, like you said. Sweet tea is Southern table wine--we love it so much! I think the reason you couldn't get the tea sweet enough is because you're used to artificial sweeteners which taste a lot sweeter than sugar.

Hi Paula I've been making "Sun Tea" since the 80's when it started trending. I lucked out years back when I went thrifting and found a gal. jar that were so popular back in the day and that's how I make my tea. I feel it cut out the bitterness of tea especially since I like mind strong too. And since I follow a Keto lifestyle I sweeten my tea with monk fruit and a little stevia. My preference are key limes but I also like yellow lemons too. BTW you do look great in a pony tail. Blessings.

@robertbonfiglio3218 2 года назад

OMG - I do the same exact thing! Be doing it for the last 25 years and last year I discovered the monk fruit with stevia! Much of the time I go without the sweetener but when I do the only thing I will use is the monk fruit - zero carbs and no side effects of the artificial sweetener. Looking good, Paula!

Hi y'all I've been making sun tea in the summer time since the early 80's. I'm just like Paula I only use Luzianne tea bags! I do something a little different I also add orange spice tea bags along with my Luzianne tea bags. Oh my goodness! It tastes so good as Paula says it'll make your tongue want to slap your brain! LOL and now that I'm a type 2 diabetic I sweeten mine with swerve. It's non-GMO and it's extremely easy on the digestive system it does not give you diarrhea! It tastes like sugar and measures just like sugar! Sometimes I switch off and I leave out the orange spice and use lemons to make lemon flavored tea! If you've never tried orange spice added to your tea give it a try you'll love it!
