What’s the real history behind Milo’s Tea though?
Milo’s was founded as a restaurant in 1946 by Milo and Bea Carlton after Milo returned from serving his country in World War II. Being a military family ourselves, we always stand behind those who serve so hearing Milo served our country makes this company extra special.In 1989, Milo’s began selling their fresh brewed Famous Sweet Tea to local Birmingham grocery stores and now Milo’s beverages can be found in thousands of retailers across the United States.
Milo’s philosophy was simple – use high quality, fresh, natural ingredients, listen to your customers and never sacrifice taste. This is the same philosophy that Milo’s Tea upholds today.Drink Milo’s and taste the difference.
Pomegranate Iced Tea Punch can be made by the glass or in a large pitcher. This punch goes quickly, so I recommend just making a big batch. Wash your fresh cranberries and remove the arils from a pomegranate. Slice the oranges and sugar coat some rosemary sprigs. The sugar coated rosemary is a nice touch for a little sparkle and is simple to do. Just give the rosemary a quick rinse with water and dip into a sugar filled plate. Gently shake off the excess sugar and that’s it! They smell and look gorgeous.
Before guests arrive, fill the pitcher half way with ice and drop in most of the orange slices and cranberries. Leave some to the side for garnish. Next, add 3 cups Milo’s Tea, 1 cup pomegranate juice and 3 cups ginger ale. Each glass will get a couple ice cubes, a sparkling rosemary sprig, an orange slice, a few cranberries and a few pomegranate arils filled with Pomegranate Iced Tea Punch. Add a festive straw if you wish.
