McDonald's Sweet Tea

[Froggyswife]

I get the 1/2 sweet 1/2 unsweet I love sweet tea but resturants around here always put way too much sugar in their sweet tea for my taste.

I would gladly give up food forever if I could live solely on sweet tea.

Chick-Fil-A tea is better than McD's, but McD's is much cheaper! After 8 years of marriage I have finally convinced DH that there is a difference between sweet tea, and adding sugar to unsweetened tea!

Love Chick-Fil-A's sweet tea and will pay extra for it over McDonald's. I find McDonald's to be too syrupy for me taste.

addictive!

230 calories, but no HFCS!
(and that is for a full cup of ice, as opposed to my favorite - "easy on the ice/lite ice" )

We used to be able to DIY with the tea, now all the tea is in the back, and they cant seem to get my 1/2 sweet and 1/2 no sweet - easy ice recipe

Also-
when you make it yourself - do boil water, add sugar to that water, because sugar crystals do not "melt" in cold water, they will always fall to the bottom.

and Sun Tea is great - as long as you use a "cheap" tea bag - the Lipton cold tea has instant tea and really ground tea "leaves" otherwise, for another good flavor - you throw those tea bags in that boiling water to get the flavor out of them too!!

Well darn! I do dilute it though. That should count. Still the same calories but it lasts longer so I'm not filling up on other stuff. Yes. I can rationalize those calories away!

Love Chick-Fil-A's sweet tea and will pay extra for it over McDonald's. I find McDonald's to be too syrupy for me taste.

I love Chic-Fil-A's sweet tea too. It is better. McD's is just easier on the purse. There have been days that I'm glad I have that little dollar to trade for a sweet tea.

I'm convinced they put crack in that tea!

TOTALLY off topic, but has anyone tried the frozen hot chocolate at Dunkin Donuts? It looks sooooo good!

At our McDs you can get one of the big coolers (5 or 10 gallons) full of sweet tea for $5

That's amazing! Now I know what we're serving at DD's next birthday party.

I'm so addicted to McD's sweet tea

I've tried...I really have. I tried to like sweet tea. I just can't. Makes me feel like an outcast here in NC. DH loves it though.

Don't feel too bad, if I recall you aren't originally from that south are you? I am, a long line of southerners. I can't stand sweet tea of any kind. I have to have the fake stuff in my tea, anything else makes me sick.
