oh!

There are some things in this world that are just WRONG - and this is one of them....

I'm not sure if I've ever tried it.
I usually make mine with splenda and add lemon.
Thanks for the heads up!

hey now that's just funny. Sounds like it would make me

try a shot of tequila to get rid of that taste!

Artificially sweetened anything should be outlawed. I hate that fake-sweet taste.

I bet a sweet tea vodka would help with that.

Andrew- you are probably right about that....

There must be a market for this stuff. Shooting the guy seems a bit harsh.

Funny, that's how I feel about sweet tea, period.

I do everything I can to avoid instant tea. and wish they would just stop sweetening everything. I occasionally will drink a bottle of Snapple, but would really prefer that my Peach or Raspberry tea was unsweetened. And fake lemon stuff ought to be outlawed!

HUMPH....not harsh enough in my book. On second thought lets torture him only giving him the instant stuff to drink for the rest of his life!

Nestea, I think, makes an unsweetened ice tea that's pretty good. Trouble is, it's hard to find.

This is my current fave, although I make it with tea bags since the only place I've found this big bottle was at at restaurant.

Ain't nothin' like the real thing baby, ain't nothing like the real thing........




It is a cultural thing you understand.

goood Lord girl, I bet you don't admit that when you hit Atlanta.

I like tea, sweet, but I swear some restaurants here in the South are trying to poison you with sugar over-dose.

It's not tea, it's syrup.


On occasion I fix the tea urns for the teachers at school, they always complain there isn't enough sugar in it.

I'd say they like about full, 1 1/2 qts. sugar to just barely over a gallon and half of tea. And that's no kidding.
