Very good sweet tea. I was buying everyday at Mickey D's. This is a great replacement.

Wow! The baking soda really does make a difference! Tastes just like McD's sweet tea, which I am addicted to. Glad I can save money by making my own. Thanks!

This was okay. It seemed to get better as the days went on. I love sweet tea and as it was good, I was not impressed.

Delicious! Not too sweet and no bitter aftertaste! I doubled the amount so I could use my gallon tea jar. I only used 7 tea bags though. I didn't reduce the amount of sugar.

as far as sweet tea goes this one is great! i'm not a big fan myself normally. my husband's family drinks it all the time so he has a "homemade recipe" but i always thought it was really bitter. this was surprisingly tasty and without that grosse after-taste which i totally expected to be there with this kind of tea. awesome little trick with the baking soda!

Absolutely the best iced tea recipe! I added some lemon juice (2 tbs) to give it just the right taste for me.

I used Splenda instead of sugar. It's a little too sweet for me, so I made a second pitcher and used 1/2 cup instead. I also, doubled the recipe. Much better!

This is the BEST sweet tea. I was always having to go to the store to buy the Arizona Southern Style Sweet Tea and that is the BEST tea in my opinion (store bought). My kids were begging me to make this tea last night and they aren't the easiest pleasers... So this gets a 5, I would rate higher if i could!

I've reduced the sugar to just a little over 1/3 cup. This tea, in all of its forms (black, green, fruity or not) got my family and friends through the hottest days of the summer. Love it!

This is so good. I have had the recipe about 2 days now and have made double the recipe about 3 or 4 times now. Its that good and it is very smooth. I may go through alot of tea bags but its worth it. I will make this for my next family get together.

I love sweet tea, and since I live in Korea- it's VERY hard to come by. After getting tired of powdered Lipton tea mixes, I decided to give this a try. It's perfect, and very quick to make.

Pretty good. I only used 1/2 cup of sugar as the others suggested and thought it was great. No bitterness at all from the tea. I like mine a little stronger, so I might play with steeping longer or more bags.

excellent recipe! I discovered sweet tea when I moved from Oregon to Florida. I've missed sweet tea since moving back to Oregon and I never could find a good recipe. I like mine pretty sweet so next time I'll probably up the sugar to 1 cup but this is sooo good. Can't recommend it enough.

My hb loves the sweet tea we get at Famous Dave's but we could not for the life of us figure out how they made it until now. Wow! I used an electric ice tea maker, 8 reg tea bags, ice and water the machine called for, and 1/4 tsp baking soda and 4 TBS sugar. 10 minutes later we had delicious smooooooth sweet tea! Yummy.
