Publix Southern Sweet Tea Drink Mix
What it is
This is a convenient powdered mix designed to help you easily create authentic Southern-style sweet tea at home. It contains sugar and tea flavoring, so you don't need to brew tea leaves or measure granulated sugar separately. The blend is formulated to dissolve readily in water, delivering a consistent taste profile that many associate with traditional sweet tea served in the American South. It aims to simplify the process of making this popular beverage.
How people cook with it
This drink mix is primarily used to quickly prepare a batch of sweet tea. It's a simple way to get the desired flavor without the full brewing process.
- Quickly make iced tea

To prepare, simply combine the specified amount of drink mix with cold water in a pitcher. Stir well until the powder is completely dissolved. You can adjust the amount of mix and water to achieve your preferred level of sweetness and tea flavor intensity. Serve over ice for a refreshing drink. It's designed for cold preparation, eliminating the need to heat water or brew tea bags. This makes it ideal for busy days or when you want a sweet tea fix fast.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike loose tea leaves or tea bags, this mix already contains the sweetener, so no additional sugar is needed. It offers a pre-portioned flavor profile, whereas brewing your own tea allows for more control over the strength and type of tea used.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store the remaining drink mix in its original container or an airtight bag in a cool, dry place. Ensure the container is sealed to prevent moisture from clumping the powder. Proper storage will help maintain the freshness and flavor of the mix for future use.
