How McDonald's Can Improve Their Iced Tea

I only buy McDonald's Iced Tea in the morning, because it tastes horrible at the end of the day!
The most important thing about a fast food chain is product consistency. They spent decades perfecting a system so that when you order something from any McDonald's in the world, it will taste exactly the same as any other McDonald's, with no exceptions.
Unfortunately, because of their efforts to be consistent, this means that no matter which McDonald's restaurant I've been to, whenever I order Iced Tea later in the day, it's NEVER as good as the Iced Tea they serve in the morning. That's because McDonald's doesn't refrigerate their Iced Tea, which makes their Unsweetened Iced Tea exceptionally bitter for the second half of the day.
By contrast, if you order Unsweetened Iced Tea from White Castle, it always tastes fresh because they keep it refrigerated at all times.
To fix this, all McDonald's has to do is either keep their Iced Tea COLD, by refrigerating it or keeping it on ice, or simply making sure to refresh the dispenser several times throughout the day, which is exactly how they keep their coffee fresh.
