How many cups of Sugar go into a perfect gallon of Sweet Tea?

[Hotsauce]

I dunno ask BoJangles

[Chimera]

I use 2. I think. Its been like 5 years since I've made sweet tea.

I honestly don't see how/why people drink unsweet tea. It is nasty.

On a similar/side note....How come, when I order tea, do they ask "Sweet or unsweetened"? If I order Pepsi, they don't ask "Regular or diet?". If I want unsweetened tea, I'll say "Unsweetened tea, please".

Iced tea is sweetened. End of discussion.

No- iced tea is iced tea. Where does it say "you must add a ton of sugar to this before it's tea?"

"If I order they don't ask "Regular or

No, they give you a cup and you go fill it yourself with whichever you prefer.

I don't even think I have any sugar in my house.

I use 6 big tea bags, 12 little ones.

1 2/3 cups sugar, ding ding mr joscott.

I also use 6 tea bags, go with 1.5 cups of sugar though...

while I agree with you....I will say that being in the south...if you order tea..you're more than likely going to get sweet tea...

I say "unsweet tea" when I order

[Panthro]

Zero...sweet tea sucks

[Jase]

Next you'll be telling me that lox is a perfectly logical thing to put on a bagel.

IT ISN'T

Absolutely! When I moved from civilization to the South in 1992, my second mistake was to order tea without specifying "unsweet," which brings up another point. Why, when you order unsweet tea, are you then asked, "Would you like sugar, Splenda or (insert whatever else is out there) with that?"

Oh, my first mistake was moving away from beautiful Southern California.....

[Mrs Pantherfan]

If you hate it here, why don't you go back?

sugar has calories

splenda/equal don't..so you can sweeten your tea w/o said calories

I use 2 lipton teabags in the coffee maker with the 3rd one in the coffee pot so it gets extra strong when it gets there. then I half and half it with water and add 2 cups of sugar. Bitch please... nom nom nom.

Exactly. So why add more sugar to our diets by ruining Ice Tea with it?
