Read the paragraph.

Both milk and lemon juice can be added to tea to give it added flavor. Milk is best added to hot tea, not cold. On the other hand, lemon juice is best with iced tea. Milk gives tea a creamy texture, while lemon juice makes it a bit sour. However, don’t put both milk and lemon juice into your tea at the same time. The lemon juice will turn the milk into tiny hard lumps.

Which concluding sentence best ties the ideas together and supports the paragraph’s compare-and-contrast text structure?

Hot tea with milk goes well with both breakfast and after-dinner desserts.
Iced tea with lemon is refreshing and delicious on a hot afternoon.
In any case, tea with milk or with lemon juice is always a delicious choice.
Many things, like milk, sugar, and lemon, can be added to tea for added flavor.

Answer: In any case, tea with milk or with lemon juice is always a delicious choice.

Step-by-step explanation: This sentence ties all of it together because it tells the reader that both lemon and milk are good options to add to tea. Not leaving either add on out of the sentence.

If you use the first or second choice, you would be limiting the concluding sentence to either milk or lemon juice, not both.

The last choice gives more options but not the ones you are talking about.
