    If you have been craving a glass of sweet tea you are going to love the Alabama Sweet Tea Company! They sell multiple flavors of sweet and unsweet tea along with southern biscuits, creating the perfect combination of Alabama hospitality and convenience.

    Located in the vibrant Portside on Main development at The Wharf, Alabama Sweet Tea Company brings Southern tradition to one of Orange Beach's most popular entertainment and shopping destinations. Whether you're exploring The Wharf's shops, catching a concert at the Wharf Amphitheater, or just strolling along the marina, a cold mason jar of sweet tea is the perfect companion.

    The concept is simple but brilliant: choose your flavor, get your tea served in a 32oz signature glass mason jar, and enjoy. Once you purchase a mason jar of tea, you can bring it back for a refill at a discount price. The reusable mason jar becomes a souvenir of your Alabama Gulf Coast visit.

    Seating

    There is no seating within the store itself. You order your tea at the counter and can walk around The Wharf with it or take it with you to go. This grab-and-go format works perfectly for The Wharf's walkable layout. You can sip your tea while shopping, enjoy it on a bench overlooking the marina, or take it to one of the nearby green spaces.

    While there aren't chairs inside the Alabama Sweet Tea Company shop, the Portside on Main area has Adirondack chairs in the open green space. Keep in mind these chairs are pretty low to the ground, so they may not be comfortable for everyone. Most customers treat their tea as a portable refreshment while exploring The Wharf's attractions and shops.

    The Alabama Sweet Tea Company keeps it simple and Southern: iced teas and biscuits.

    Iced Tea

    All iced teas are served in a 32oz signature glass mason jar. The jars themselves are part of the experience-sturdy, reusable, and quintessentially Southern.

    Flavors of tea include:

    • The Southern (Sweet)
    • The Mason-Dixon (half-sweet)
    • The Yankee (unsweet)
    • The Holiday (Cinnamon Sweet)
    • The Redhead (Strawberry Sweet)
    • The Clanton (Peach Sweet)
    • The Bluebird (Blueberry Sweet)

    Refill Program:

    The genius of the refill program: bring back your mason jar and get your next tea at a discounted price. This encourages repeat visits, reduces waste, and makes your initial purchase feel like an investment rather than a single-use transaction. Locals love this feature, and visitors often take advantage of it throughout their stay.

    Southern Biscuits

    Southern biscuits are available individual or in a 6-pack, served hot and fresh..
