McAlister’s Deli Celebrates National Iced Tea Day with Launch of the “Tea-cation”

Inspired by McAlister’s Deli’s Famous Tea, this Limited-Edition Set of Inflatables Creates a Fun and Refreshing Staycation For Tea-Lovers

Atlanta, GA [June 6, 2023] - To celebrate National Iced Tea Day on June 10, McAlister’s Deli® has created a relaxing getaway for iced tea-lovers, right in your own backyard. Sipping on our famous tea takes you on a mental vacation, and this summer McAlister’s created an at-home oasis that is just as refreshing as that first sip. The limited-edition Tea-cation set is complete with all the infla-tea-ble essentials needed for the ultimate summertime staycation, giving you the perfect spot to kick back and enjoy a freshly-brewed McAlister’s Tea.

“Nothing goes better together than summer and iced tea, so we’re excited to give our fans a one-of-a-kind experience to enjoy our famous tea in a new way,” said Mike Freeman, Chief Brand Officer of McAlister’s Deli. “We’ve been celebrating ‘Free Tea Day’ at McAlister’s Deli for 15 years and this limited-edition Tea-cation puts a new spin on one of our favorite days of the year.”

The McAlister’s Tea-cation includes an inflatable pool, which can be filled with the lemon wedge floatie, pool noodle and inflatable cup holders inspired by our array of flavors to resemble a cup of McAlister’s Famous Tea. You can unwind poolside in the inflatable lounge chair while sipping on a glass of ice cold tea from the cooler. The set also comes with an inflatable ring toss game, portable speaker, custom beach towel, sticker pack, bar cart and a Tea-cation themed backdrop.
