Born and raised in Alabama. We use luzianne but no sweetener. I can drink sweet tea but I actually prefer it unsweetened. Strange I know.

I’m going back to pure cane sugar. Mexican coke with real sugar is heads and tails better than artificial B.S.

When I go to some place like Cracker Barrel, if I get their sweet tea, I usually tear open about 4 or 5 more sugar packs

I cannot stand incompetence when it comes to commercial operations making sweet tea.


When we take a cruise

I take my own box of Luzianne and a 5lb bag of sugar, and a 54 ounce thermos. Get scalding hot water from the server station, make my own.

Cruise ship tea is foucking pathetic. Nasty fuggin Jasmine goat pussy juice they temper it with.

I maybe drink a gallon of tea in a year's time. Sweetened, and don't care with what, or what brand.

I can only drink it unsweetened.

From the Mickey D's drive through.

Posted By: CashisKing Re: Iced tea - 03/05/21
I like half sweet tea...

10 or 20% lemonade is a bonus.

Add a lot of supplemental water between

Drink a couple of quarts in the spring and fall and a gallon or two in the summer daily.

Lack of hydration is the number one problem most adult working men suffer from.

Luzianne
Posted By: Crow hunter Re: Iced tea - 03/05/21
I prefer Luzianne and of course cane sugar is the best option, but I mostly drink it with Splenda because sugar is a gazillion calories.

I can't even begin to fathom how anyone could drink unsweet tea, do people actually do that?

Lemon in tea is just nasty.

Don't care what brand , NO SWEET SH*T in mine. That Micky D sweet tea will cause instant diabetes in one swallow.

My urine is about 98% sweet tea, your old lady never complains when I massage her tonsils with my cock.

Sweet, real sugar.

Peach schnapps or moonshine are a nice touch.

cane sugar= 16 calories/teaspoon. How many teaspoons in a glass of tea do you need?

Tablespoons, not teaspoons and the answer is "I don't know until I taste it". It's properly sweetened when the tea is roughly the viscosity of cold maple syrup and your hands shake uncontrollably after drinking a glass.

My grandmother made the benchmark for sweet tea. I remember she had a pitcher that probably held about a gallon and a half & she'd use about half a five pound bag of sugar to sweeten it. When she got the sugar dissolved the spoon would almost stand up on it's own. It was gooooood!
Posted By: mohave_mauler1 Re: Iced tea - 03/05/21
Either one, if it's sweet then cane sugar. Lots of ice, it's hot in the desert.

Holy popsicles Batman.

Freeze that stuff and market it to kids.

Half a teaspoon of honey in my hot tea is more than enough. 14oz mug. Can't imagine tea with tablespoons of sweet stuff in it. Might as well just tear open the sugar packets and pour them in your mouth like a Pixie Stik.

That last couple of glass fulls was killer. Make you want to split your head open on the trampoline. We called it ‘the slimy’ 👍

I like iced tea as much as any other American, but I do tend to enjoy a good hot cup of Irish Breakfast with a splash of milk too. It's all good.

Iced tea (NOT to be confused with sweet tea) is like steak and coffee, if it needs something added to taste good, it's not the right stuff to begin with.
Posted By: Bald1 Re: Iced tea - 03/05/21
Luzianne slow brewed at room temperature or as "sun" tea. Extremely smooth and with NO sweetener!
Posted By: Deans Re: Iced tea - 03/05/21
Lipton with ice. no sugar or lemon
Posted By: Pappy348 Re: Iced tea - 03/05/21
For gallons, it’s the Lipton Gallon-size bags from Costco. Steep in about two quarts of nearly-boiling water for five minutes, then remove the bag and add ice and cold water to fill the jug. No hard-water scum when prepared this way. No sugar; sweet tea makes me gag.

The China Doll makes fruit juice from what we grow. If any is handy, I may add a bit if it for flavor. It’s pretty sweet, but the amount I add doesn’t sweeten the tea appreciably.

When she goes home for a visit every few years, she fills her bags up with snack foods and tea on the return trip. Most days she makes herself a cup and me a pint and a half of whatever she pulls out of the stash. Usually, I drink mine iced, which makes me a barbarian of sorts.

Whatever store brand. Some kind of fake sugar.

My wife struggles some with the blood sugar.

I drink water and beer.

Store brand tea, boil in pot, remove from heat, put saucer over pot, let steep for hours, pour in glass gallon jug, bags and all, fill with water, stir and drink black.

Lipton, straight on the rocks, no sweetener. Now, that's refreshing.

Tried Luzianne but, it gives me heartburn.....bad.
