The secret to Perfect Sweet Tea!


Sweet Tea...
 Just hearing those words make ya sigh a satisfied sigh...

I am a Southern Woman... 
Southern women love their Sweet Tea...
And... I have been told I make the BEST Sweet Tea in Texas!

I'm gonna let you in on my little secret.
Follow this simple recipe, and your life will be complete!
When I was in High School, I worked at a little Steak House in Texas City Texas called "Lone Star Steaks" 
The Lone Star was known for miles and miles around for two things....
They had this amazing Green Olive, Tomato, Vinegar & Oil  "House" salad dressing stuff.
(Oh Man!! How I wish I knew that recipe!!)
And... We made the Smoothest, Most Amazing, Last-Meal-Worthy, Sweet Tea in the South!

I'm not kidding!
The local police officers would stop by several times a shift to fill their thermos with what they called  "Nectar of the Gods".
People actually tried to bribe me for the secret to the Perfect Sweet Tea.


I never gave it up.
I never told.
I was a good employee.
Well, Guess what?!?
Love Star Steaks closed a few years ago!
So, I'm thinkin it's now ok to share the super-duper-secret recipe!!


There IS a small "secret" ingredient in this Tea.
It removes all bitterness and creates a smooth, clear amazing Tea!

Ready??
Here goes!
