What is this 'un-sweet iced tea' of which you speak? I'm afraid I don't understand you.
I like plain black tea, Earl Grey, and green teas, no lemon for me, except for green tea or unless it's powdered tea; then the lemon-flavor really makes the drink. Two teaspoons of sugar is all a cupful really needs.

Never with milk or creamer. Milk and creamer in tea is just wrong to me.
Yup, yup. Used to drink it that way, but then I had some without and can never go back. Now it sort of makes me sick to see (or worse, SMELL) soupy, milky tea. :crazy1:
(Unless the tea is unbearably bitter, though; then I might add a small bit of milk to mute the harshness. It won't taste as good as un-bitter tea /without/ milk, but it's still drinkable.)
The Sweet Tea at The Cupboard in Memphis is AMAZING. Also at the Cozy Corner. Heck, ALL the sweet tea in Memphis is amazing. I Love sweet tea. I can always drink it. Unless it's like the nestle sweet tea with all the corn syrup I don't like it. It really depends what mood I'm in. I'll drink any on that list. And I enjoy all of them. I really enjoy all types of tea. Here are my favorites:
Southern Sweet Tea
Prince of Wales
Irish Breakfast
English Breakfast
Green Tea
White Tea
Apple Herbal Tea
Chammomile
Chai
Rasberry Herbal Tea
Mint Tea
Celery Tea (I invented it)
Chrysanthemum Tea
Rosemary Tea
Oolong Tea (the kind that smells like burning wood)
And I'm waaay north (although, not as far as canada. I'm an hour and a half from the border, though) and I drink tea like it's my blood. But only hot tea. Can't stand iced tea.
