t__m:Have you ever made sun tea? Big glass jug, 2 tea bags and leave it in the sun for a few hours
Yes.
And at restaraunts and with caterers, you have the option of sweet tea and unsweetened. The sweet tea is too sweet for me. I always have the unsweetened and then I grab some fake sweetener to suit my own taste.
Certainly, we have access to instant tea mixes but most people I know prefer the taste of brewed tea. Also, I think, geopgraphy has something to do with it. When you have a few months of temps in the 90's F and one month, August, where you get some days to weeks of 100 F, most anything you drink, you will want ice in it. Cold beer, cold soda, cold tea. I will drink water that is not necessarily ice cold as long as it's not heated by sitting in the sun. If you get hot, sometimes cold water is a shock to the system and something less than ice cold is actually easier on the system. But we drink iced tea year round. There will be a few days in December when I have to turn the ac on.
