Drink as the Georgians do and make a Sweet Tea. While Sweet Tea from restaurants might be too sweet for your liking, making it at home allows you to adjust the sweetness level. It’s the perfect thing to always keep in your fridge for when guests drop by. Freshen it up with lemon slices and/or mint leaves and enjoy that deep, refreshing flavor.
