BESSEMER, Ala., June 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Success at the Global Tea Championship, five delicious NEW Tea items, and June is National Iced Tea month are just a few exciting things Milo's is celebrating this summer.

At the 2017 Global Tea Championship, the third-generation family owned and certified Woman Owned Business was chosen as a winner again for Milo's Famous Sweet Tea. This is the seventh year in a row for Milo's Teas to place or win in the Global Tea Championship (formerly the North American Tea Championship).

"My grandfather, Milo, was always focused on the customer," Milo's CEO Tricia Wallwork said. "71 years later, our team continues to focus on and celebrate our loyal fans across the country who have helped us share the Milo's Difference."

With the addition of NEW Milo's Limited Edition Peach Tea and Famous Sweet Tea in a convenient ½ gallon bottle and three New Milo's Organic Teas, it is clear that Milo's still listens to their customers.

Southern Living Magazine recognized the Milo's Difference in a recent feature stating, "What we love most about Milo's Sweet Tea is that it's made exactly the same way as it was on day one—just the same as my grandmother makes it: fresh-brewed tea, water, and sugar." *

With so much to celebrate, including National Iced Tea Month, Milo's is thanking their loyal fans with Facebook giveaways all June. To enter the numerous giveaways, fans can simply follow the instructions on Milo's Facebook page at: facebook.com/MilosTea
