^ This. Diet Coke/Pepsi if you're LUCKY. Otherwise, water.

Do you people’s restaurants not serve iced tea?

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 18 points 6 months ago

In some states iced tea would also be full of sugar. And "hot tea" is a dry teabag next to a cup of warmish water.

[-] Ostrichgrif@lemmy.world 14 points 6 months ago

As an iced tea enjoyer, who has been to almost 40 states that is absolutely untrue. I've never been to any restaurant that serves sweet tea but does not serve unsweetened as well. Some places especially in the north don't consistently have either, but in my experience, if they have one they always have the other

[-] shuzuko@midwest.social 3 points 6 months ago

Nope. Plenty of places in the midwest only carry unsweet and "flavored", not regular sweet tea. The flavor is usually extra sweet fruit flavored syrup like raspberry or peach.

[-] Ostrichgrif@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Okay fair enough, I haven't been to many Midwestern states, especially rural areas of those states. I was more referring to places carrying only sweet tea and not unsweet

Here in Canada it is mostly just sweet tea

I have been all over the continental United States of America, except California, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, and that other state up there between California and Washington that I always think is Vermont, driving a truck and have literally never been to a place that had sweet tea but not unsweet.

I’ve seen a few the other way around, but that was in New England, about as far from sweet tea culture as you can get.

Maybe a gas station or a fast food joint that use the syrups instead of brewed, but you don’t want to drink that shit

I live in GA, where if you order tea it will be defaulted to sweet tea. However, I have never seen a place that doesn't have unsweet - you just have to order it that way.

The trick is "Unsweetened Ice Tea", which not everyone has. :(
