Olive Garden Fresh Brewed Sweet Iced Tea

About This Dish

Fresh Brewed Sweet Iced Tea at Olive Garden is a house-made Southern-style sweet tea priced at $3.69 — the same price as the standard fountain drinks — and containing 90 calories per glass. The tea is brewed fresh at each location and sweetened before serving. For guests who prefer traditional American sweet tea over flavored or specialty options, this is the clearest equivalent at the price point. At just 90 calories, it sits well below the fruit lemonades and sodas in calorie content while providing a more flavorful experience than water.

Freshly brewed sweet iced tea holds a natural place on the Olive Garden menu as the connecting point between American casual dining expectations and the restaurant's Italian-American positioning. While classically sweet tea is a Southern American tradition rather than an Italian one, its longtime presence at the restaurant reflects the broad guest base that appreciates its familiar, reliable flavor. At $3.69 with free refills during dine-in service, it is the best-value sweet beverage at the restaurant.
