drank Famous Unsweet Tea by Milo's

Well, so far this week, I’ve watched a chain saw artist sculpt a dinosaur, hiked up stairs equivalent to the height of Taum Sauk Mountain, hugged kids wearing ponchos drenched with neon paint, shopped for guitar picks, listened to a room of screaming kids exceed the decibel level of tornado sirens, and carried children’s dirty socks in my bare hands….so at this point, I’m not especially picky about what I drink!

So normally, I wouldn’t have even considered the Milo’s unsweet tea in gallon jugs offered at the VBS volunteer canteen, but desperate times call for desperate measures. And I was pleasantly surprised. It tasted like tea without being acidic or unpleasantly sharp. I’m going to add it to the “it’ll do” list next time I need a grab-n-go quickie-mart beverage.

Milo’s is very underrated. It’s the only bottled tea that tastes homemade.

I’m not sure I’ve seen it in anything but gallon containers around here, but I intend to keep my eye out. Do you have McAlister’s Deli restaurants anywhere nearby? Their iced tea is the best offering on the menu—brewed in-house and always tastes fresh.

Pretty typical sweet tea from a big name in manufacturing. It’s not too sweet so that’s a plus. You can taste the herbal side of the tea slightly.

Milo’s has the perfect balance of flavors, it’s everything I’m looking for in a sweet tea. There is just enough sugar to give you a rush, but not enough to make you feel like your teeth are going to fall out at any moment. I was reluctant to admit this, but I enjoyed it more than my old standby, Red Diamond. The lack of preservatives in Milo’s and the perfect balance of sweetness was enough to ensure it was crowned the king of bottled sweet teas, a position Red Diamond has held for over 18 years. It look’s like I finally have a new favorite, which is something I never thought I would say.
