Jac o' lyn Murphy: Country Club Sweet Tea Bar

Country Club Sweet Tea Bar

I created my Sweet'N Low Sweet Tea Bar as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars #SweetNLowStars

Iced Tea always reminds me of being a kid and
going with my best friend to her Country Club.



Everything there was perfect, pretty and oh so preppy.
We spent long days playing tennis and swimming, 
eating and drinking to our hearts content.

Sweet Tea also makes me think of living in the South.
It is the perfect drink for the hot, humid weather and amazing food.

I put my two memories together during this Indian Summer 
and created a Sweet Tea Bar!

Easy to make and even more fun to drink.
The secret ingredients are Sweet'N Low and just a touch of baking soda...

Poured into tulip glasses with golf and tennis ball stir sticks, 

and topped with fun, fresh fruit...

 you'll be transported right back to The Club!


How does it look with my
"tennis" bracelet?

The Club Sweet Tea
8 cups water
6 tea bags
1/8th tsp baking soda
10 packets of Sweet'N Low

Boil water then pour into a heat proof pitcher.  Add baking soda and tea bags.  Steep tea for about 5 minutes. Once cooled, add to serving container, stir in Sweet'N Low, top with ice and enjoy!


Follow Sweet'N Low on Facebook for more ideas, recipes and sweetness.


I am honored to be able to continue blogging with the support of my wonderful sponsors.

  1. What a fabulous idea! Your bracelet fits in nicely with the theme, good job girl! One question though, why the baking soda???

    1. I'm not sure why, it just makes it taste "crisper" and takes a little bitterness out of the tea
