If a customer asks for 'sweet' tea, what flavor(s) should we use?

• A. Liquid cane sugar
• B. Honey
• C. Stevia
• D. Molasses

Answer: (A)

Sweet tea should be sweetened with something that blends evenly and stays neutral in flavor. Liquid cane sugar fits because it dissolves quickly in cold tea, preventing gritty texture and letting you control sweetness precisely for each order. It keeps the tea’s character intact without adding distinctive flavors. Honey would introduce noticeable floral notes, changing the tea’s taste. Stevia can leave an aftertaste and doesn’t always mix smoothly in large batches. Molasses has a strong, distinct flavor that would overpower most teas. So, liquid cane sugar is the best choice for consistent, neutral sweetness.
