Sacred Tears are used to upgrade Flasks of Crimson Tears, and Flask of Cerulean Tears in Elden Ring. You can do this by visiting any Site of Grace in the game.

By collecting all the Sacred Tears you can increase the potency of each flash by up to +12. So the more Sacred Tears you collect, the more HP, and FP you’ll be able to restore.
