Y’all Sweet Tea
In April 2021, the company officially launched as Y’all Sweet Tea. However, the business and its ideas started much earlier.
“I first had the idea to sell sweet tea in high school. It wasn’t until I was fired from a job a few years later that I decided to pursue it. The week I got fired, I had $7 to my name. With the last paycheck I received, I used the $300 from that check to purchase the first jars, sugar, and tea that would eventually catapult this idea.
“I thought, Sweet Tea is the most Southern drink, and the word Y’all is the most Southern word. Let’s call it Y’all Sweet Tea!”
