[Big Poppa Puff]

I am starting a weekly rant thread and here is the first installment


What the fuck is up with yankees and sweet tea? i happen to live in the heart of Dixie and sweet tea at a restaurant is mandatory when applying for a business liscence. I can go to the mexican restaurant and get sweet tea, sam goes at chines, thai, american, fast food, etc. But a trend I've noticed over the past weekend is that some places only serve unsweet tea and then expect you to add your own sugar. What is the deal with that. The only people that I knopw that drink unsweet tea are the people that add the pink or blue sugar. But now some places only make unsweet tea and expect you the customer to finish the job.

I think this is another yankee conspiracy or another chapter of the reconstructions meant to punish the south after the war between the states.

Now for all my yankee friends who have never heard of sweet tea OR who don't know how to make it follow these directions.

Take two bags and drop them in boiling water (I also hate that stupid sun brewed tea, but that's another story)

Pour the brewed tea while still hot into a pitcher.

ADD SUGAR AND STIR (see that's not so damn hard)

Add some more cold water to the pitcher and serve over ice (but not too much ice, another rant topic)

And then drink to your hearts content. Now don't add anymore sugar, trust me it works and its sweet enough) I know , I know ther's not a pile of undissolved sugar fsunk to the bottem of the glass that requires constant stirring to keep the drink sweet. But the Hot Tea dissolved it and its FINE!

Now after trying this recipe for a while you can add to it. try a little pink lemonade frozen concentrate for some of the sugar and you can eliminate that lemon wedge.

Whew!!!!!! Glad to get that pff the chest!!! Enjoy the rant

C'Ya BPP!!!!!!
