I would like to try this recipe, but I have 2 questions if someone can answer them. Does it really need the 1 cup sugar since I am considering Tang as my breakfast drink mix and it is generally sweet enough for me, and also what brand of sweetened lemonade mix have you tried that worked ?

I'm not much of a tea drinker, but I love this tea! I gave some out at our annual cookie bake and the ladies loved it too. I'm going to keep it on hand all winter long.
