Sonny’s sweet tea?

I am from the south and make sweet tea from time to time. I can never get it to taste as good as Sonny’s BBQ. I use two family size Lipton tea bags steeped in 8 cups of water with 3/4 cup sugar and it’s just not the same. It’s okay but not nearly as good. Anybody work there that can tell me what they do?

Its a special blend of tea, but they used 3lbs of sugar for 4 gallons of tea, I am a server at sonnys

So what’s goin’ on?
