well it ain’t no PG TIPS but it will make a gallon of oddly flavored water cooked in the sun, which when chilled and enhanced with fresh lemon juice and served over ice, is dope
Sweet tea is a drink prepared hot but consumed cold. The cold part is best done via refrigeration. Bringing hot water, tea, and sugar are not going to achieve the same results.
Have you ever had southern sweet tea? The flavor is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea. If you want to drink sugar water and brown coloring why not drink a coke?
What’s called sweet tea in the US is overwhelmingly sweet. That was my reaction to it the first time I tried it. It’s so sweet, the only way you can get that much sugar in it is if you dissolve that sugar in hot tea.
I’m aware of the existence and superiority of maple syrup. I only use Aunt Jemima in this example because that’s what oversweetened tea tastes like to me: shit.
This seems like a US thing I’m too European to understand
(aka. they bring us the ingredients, and we make our own tea at the restaurant table)
If I order a cup of tea, I don’t want to get a cup of hot water and a tea bag. Bloody continentals.
FUCKIN LIPTON
THAT’S NOT TEA

NUTRIMATIC DRINK DISPENSER: If you have enjoyed the experience of this drink, why not share it with your friends?
ARTHUR: Because I want to keep them! Will you try and comprehend what I’m telling you? That drink -
NUTRIMATIC DRINK DISPENSER: …that drink was individually tailored to meet your personal requirements for nutrition and pleasure
ARTHUR: Ah! So I’m a masochist on a diet, am I?!
NUTRIMATIC DRINK DISPENSER: Share and enjoy.
ARTHUR: Oh shut up.
Yeah in the US they have this thing called sweet tea (some places have a choice between sweet and unsweetened tea).
To make sweet tea they just unload a tanker truck full of gum syrup into cold tea. That’s what it tastes like to me.

it’s best not done at all to be honest. Just drink a soda like a regular person.
Why do you care what sugary drink people drink?
Some people like the taste of tea over the taste of soda, even if both are equally sickeningly sweet.

The trick is to order half sweet/half unsweet. Otherwise you get Aunt Jemima on ice.
I don’t know if you need to be told this.
Pay the money and buy real maple syrup, not ‘pancake syrup.’ Real maple syrup is one of the best tastes on the planet.
