The USDA nutrient database suggests 4.14 mg per fl oz for an Iced Tea (including the ice). This would make the Large McDonald's Sweet Tea have about 132 mg of caffeine in it.

There originally was 69 grams of sugar in a 32-ounce sweet tea, which has more sugar than 2 1/2 snickers candy bars. McDonalds has since lowered this to 38 grams per 32 fl oz.
