In the south, the majority of us like our tea sweet - before adding the ice. What is your tea preference?

WHo drinks soda  Isn't that the open box in the back of the fridge to keep it smelling fresh?

There's a HUGE difference between the 'sweet tea' you southerners drink and the iced tea (which is sweetended, but not 'sweet tea') they serve up here!

I was raised in Mississippi but my family was from Missouri so we always had our tea unsweetened. However, we didn't drink a lot of tea. My family is huge coffee drinkers and so am I.

I love sweet tea, but since I cut out sugar from my diet, I have now gone to unsweet tea with sweet and low. But it's just not the same.

Sweet tea (as in 'southern')is so sweet that it almost makes me nautious. I don't even like to put sugar in mine. Unsweetened is the best for me

Yeah, Splenda is good but there is some new stuff out that I've been using for my coffee called Truvia. It's way better.

I'm about as far "down south" as you can get...but I don't like sweeeeeet tea, I usually order mine half/half. As far as artificial sweetener, I'd rather drink water and as far as unsweet tea, I'd rather drink out of the creek.
