A pre-sweetened tea bag contains pre-measured quantities of tea and a sweetener, such as sugar or SweetN Low®. The tea is provided in a broad assortment of flavors and varieties, and is provided in both individual serving tea bags, and a large tea bag for restaurants and other institutions. Alternatively, the pre-measured sweetener may be provided in a separate sweetener bag of the same size and the same material, which is affixed side-by-side to the tea bag.
