Honestly trying American lemonade and American tea for the first time was an experience. Why is there so much sugar (or I guess high fructose corn syrup) in this drink?

Depends on who is making it. Everything store bought will be super sweet. I make my lemonade sour

It was an immigrant from Chicago, but she said she preferred "southern style" whatever that means. Pulled out iced tea with like a week's worth of my regular sugar intake in the pitcher.

Southern tea is absurdly sweet, it's more normal in other places. I did think lemonade was sugary everywhere tho.

Southern sweet tea is more of a dessert. Basically everyone here orders unsweet though and adds sugar to taste. The sweet tea they sell is mostly for kids and old ladies.
