Milo's Tea Company traces its roots to a Birmingham, Alabama restaurant opened by Milo and Bea Carlton in 1946. The family- and women-owned company now produces a nationally distributed line of ready-to-drink teas and lemonades. Milo's beverages are brewed from tea leaves, filtered water and cane sugar and contain no preservatives, colors or additives. The company emphasises sustainability and is a Platinum-Certified Zero Waste manufacturer. Headquarters and production remain in Bessemer, Alabama, where Milo's continues to be owned and operated by the Carlton family. By staying true to its original recipe and commitment to natural ingredients, Milo's has grown from a local restaurant favourite to a widely recognised beverage brand while maintaining a focus on community, environmental stewardship and exceptional taste.
