Yes Ma'am...gonna do they baking" soda riiiit----now! I'm from Georgia...Love it!

You go girl ! 💜💕💅🏻

Just watched yr new video today on how to make sweet tea! This older video showed up in my feed.🙂

I will definitely try the baking soda trick whenever I try to make it I end up adding so much sugar to take away the bitterness but it gets too sweet and still has the bitterness

I love suntea 💖

i should try to put some. baking soda in my tea

How long does it keep in the fridge?

Wish I lived in the south I like the south so much more than the Great Lakes

What is the purpose of the baking soda?

Did she give a measurement for the amount of water she used?

How can I make my own sweet tea at home in person

can i add baking powder instead?

Nope. Doesn't do the same.

Black tea is best tea.

This recipe.

Two cups of sugar!!! My teeth hurt just thinking about that! I add just two tablespoons per liter, which would be about a quarter cup per gallon. But, to each their own. Don’t change on my account. Thanks for the video.

Oh a gallon. I see now. I make 2 gallons at a time, 4 family size tea bags total, and 1 1/3 cups of sugar (into each gallon container) I use a coffee pot, and always get compliments on my tea. I've heard the baking soda truck. I need to try it one-day.

omg my paper of my tea bag caught on fire i went from somewhere💀

Great Tea Experts make all the mistakes first!

what a lovey pair of sweet teas.

Her accent approve the recipe

Who else was tripping when they heard baking soda

I disagree with the Lipton tea bags... if you’re a true southerner you’re gonna drink Luzianne tea, but that’s how my momma raised me. Nice video though :)

The only problem my head with the video was that she didn’t measure how many cups of water her large jar took…

This is heartbreaking for Asians

I think you are all going to be diabetic real quick. I'm from UK and I think this is just heartbreaking to see tea being used this way lol

BAKING SODA? Never heard of that, but when I tried it and DANG! Makes a difference! I like it! Thanks!

Lol, she said she's gonna bring the water to a "bowl" ... as in her accent is that thick. Awesome 🔥

I'm a sweet tea addict! LOL! I've not heard of the baking soda trick... definitively going to try that trick today! And, Wal-Mart STILL carriers that mason jar dispenser! I purchased mine about 3 weeks ago for $12! Thanks for sharing, pretty lady! Have a great day! Hugs!

Nothin like good ole southern sweet tea!!! I have it in my fridge every day!! My favorite!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

My granny does it… i love her sweet tea but I never use it lol

I bring 2 family size tea bags to a boil then turn down and let simmer for 2-3 mins. I pour and mix together in a gallon pitcher over 1 1/2 cups sugar, then continue to add water over the tea bags in the boiler and pour into my pitcher until full. No bitter taste at all. The more tea bags you use, and the longer you boil it or let it steep, the more stronger/bitter it will taste.

Totally trying this recipe out this weekend! Thanks!

Fell in love with the south!

This turned out so good, Thanks for taking the time in showing us how :)

Love it! Love your utensils jar! I will try with the Stevia! I have heard not to steep tea over 7 minutes because it becomes bitter after that (Barista knowledge/tip). This is why the baking soda is probably balancing out the bitterness afterwards.

You make tea like my granny used to. I can’t do that much sugar anymore, but my husband loves it! Thanks for sharing!!

I’ve never heard of the baking soda!! I need to give this a try 😋

Ok girl you got me on the baking soda 🥤! I’m From and live in Tennessee but I have never heard of soda in your sweet tea before! Definitely going to try this! We always have lemons 🍋 with our tea also. It’s the best! Thanks for sharing this tip! I’ll let you know! Have a blessed day!

Yum!! Now I want some sweet tea 😋. I'm trying the baking soda trick today. Thank you!

Love your video, I'll try baking soda in my sweet tea, Tfs, Have a sweet day.

Just got done making my first gallon of sweet tea using your recipe...my 17 y/o said it's "the best sweet tea ever"!!!! As a dad of 5 who loves sweet tea, we'll be making this one several times a week!!! Thanks!!

I take my sweet tea serious lol, definitely gonna give this recipe a try!

I loved this video def trying! My fam will love it! ☕️ 🍹

Thanks for answering why to add baking soda I have been hesitant to try making it now I will for sure!!

Great video! Thanks for sharing! Just made some!

Love this sweet tea!! Thank you for the video! Our family is addicted to it. I make 2 gallons at a time💕

I saved this video a while back.... just got around to finally making this sweet tea! Just wanted to let you know that it’s delicious!! We will be making this all the time now! Your recipe and video will save us tons of money as my hubby loves his iced tea! Thanks soooo much!! 💕💕

I'm in Louisiana I Love Ice Tea will have to try it that way.

We drink lots of sweet tea! I'm going to try adding baking soda next time I make tea!

I’m soooooo going to make this tea!!! I love sweat tea !!!!

You just made me question myself on making tea 😆 Tfs

I'm gonna try this recipe tonight. I'm from Louisiana and never heard of adding the baking soda. Can't wait to see how that tastes! :)

I tried your recipe last night and it was delicious 😋 Thank you

I really love your video Your such a joy to watch thanks you!!!! 😇

Staple on our farm!! We also drink it in Mason jars!!! I make tea everyday!

I make my sweet tea exactly like you do except I add the baking soda slowly when the tea comes to a boil. The soda really takes the bitterness out. We love sweet tea!!! :) ~Dana~

I was shocked to see sweet tea recipes are a thing on KZread. BUT then I remembered that I am Southern and there are other people out there who are not. Bless their hearts Lol Also, thank you for telling people about the baking soda! You'd be surprised how many recipes on KZread that don't include that!

I live in ky and never heard about the baking soda thing. I've never been the best at making sweet tea I always don't put enough sugar or to much or something. I just tried making it this way and it is AWSOME!! I'm going have to have my friend try this. She loves sweet tea but is VERY picky about how it tastes. I really think she will like this.

Such a super cute video!! I am going to try the stevia in mine this week 💗tfs

Craving me some maybe this weekend

this is soooooooooo gooooood

My mom taught me to add baking soda as well. I think it also helps the tea have a darker, richer color.

Looks good going try this! ☕️Tfs

First time trying iced tea and I love it 🥰

Thanks Jen!! 😘

The soda also helps to keep your sweet tea from turning cloudy once it's cooled and has been sitting overnight. Growing up, my family always had to make "double-strength" tea, and, when we needed a gallon, we put half the DS tea in with half water. Also, we used to used the "loose tea leaves" (forget how much) and had to strain it using a sieve. We also ran cool water over those leaves, gettin' more of the tea flavor - we let the tea "steep" at least 10 minutes, then made the DS tea. Our tea recipe made two gallons of DS, and, we used either 4 family sized or 16 regular sized bags (when loose tea was no longer available) to 4 cups sugar for two DS gallons of tea - with a family of six people, the tea didn't last long in our house - LOL! ... Plus, don't forget how sweet tea (and unsweet) is always best when it has set overnight at least one night before drinking it. (TIP:. If you only get or have instant tea, boil the tea and water together before sweetening it to help make it taste less instant! And, the soda is a must with instant to keep it from turning cloudy! 😉) Thank you for sharing your recipe cause I'd not made sweet tea in such a long time that I forgot the ratio of tea to sugar. Your recipe reminded me of how much we always used - exactly (I think - 😁.) Thanks bunches - pun intended, LOL!!!

I do the exact same thing! The only difference is that I prefer Red Rose tea - just a personal preference :)

I love this accent xx

Love me some tea!!♡

Im gunna make a big jug of this for up on the tractor this summer

Best tea ever!

I've lived in the South my entire life and have been making sweet tea almost my entire life. I've never heard of adding baking soda, but I'm going to try it. What you said makes sense. I'll let you know how it turns out.

My friend in Oklahoma puts a pinch of salt in hers, similar to the baking soda? Regardless this gal from California absolutely loves Sweet Tea! ❤️❤️ how many jugs do you go through in a day? I’m imagining this is enough for me with a big straw 😂

I’ll take a tall glass of southern tea. Not had any really good southern tea since my granny is in heaven.

I always use Lipton and I always put two cups of sugar in it. I want to try the baking soda though. I made 2 gallons of sweet tea a day.
