The difference between cheap and quality Iced Tea is significant

I used to drink whatever Iced Tea was convenient and it was fine. Then I tried a properly sourced version prepared as an afternoon ritual and the gap was immediately obvious. The ratio of ingredients at the quality end is in another category. The energy without the crash was also more pronounced.

You don't need to spend a fortune but you do need to care a bit. The bottom of the market in this category genuinely isn't good enough to make the habit worth keeping.
