I think that I am seriously addicted. A cup of iced tea on a hot texas day. Is there anything better?

Quite possible...the way Texans make it, too much sugar. Cut sugar ALONE out of your diet you'll lose tons. I can see how it can make you a fatass.

I agree.

As a kid I loved sweet tea but grew out of it because it became too sweet. Now I only drink unsweet.

And for the record, sweet tea is more of a deep south thing(there is a difference between "southern" and "Texan")...although many Texans drink it also. Many Texans also prefer unsweet. I also know a few who will go to Bill Miller (the best tea, IMO) and get half sweet/half unsweet.

most Texans I know drink thier tea Unsweet.
I actually have a hard time finding sweet tea at most restaurants (bill millers is abotu the only place I know of).

I prefer to make my own tea at home on the porch in a glass pitcher.
we drink so much I make it about everyday, sometimes more, and now I'm doing flavors...

May be true in your neck of the woods, up here in Far South Oklahoma I hear people bitching all the time when there's not a pitcher of liquid sugar available. Yeesh that crap will rot your teeth faster than Coke.

I spit the tea out the window if the drive-thru guy gives me sweet tea by mistake.

Ugh.

You have to have sugar in it. That's the only way! Not too much though. I stick with Lipton's.

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't ... but "sugar" in my case, when I want it, is one pack of equal or splenda in a large glass.

I'd actually like a big glass of Bill Miller's sweet tea with lime right now, but I'd be up all night.

In NC, Bojangles had the best sweet tea I've ever had in my life.

It put Bill Miller's to shame.
