What's really funny is that west of Texas, if you order it unsweetened, they look at you funny and burst out laughing. Sweet tea is positively a Southern thing.

I'll look for Cascade Ice. I just picked my most glorious Sungold tomatoes yet. This is my third (or fourth?) year growing them, and I've finally figured out exactly the right moment to pick them: in the evening when the stem end is a beautiful deep pinkish red, but only if I haven't watered yet. Mmmm - perfection! I'm going to get a little blue cheese to pair them with. As for sweet tea, I'm scared of it. I'm scared I'll become addicted. :lol: I think I'm one of the only people here who doesn't drink sweet tea. I love sparkling waters with natural juice! I’ll look for Cascade Ice.

However, my Mother made Lipton loose tea into sweet ice tea all through my childhood. I still have the tin container she kept the tea in. Lately, I've been drinking pomegranate/cranberry juice. Seems to be popular up here. I also like Cascade Ice. I don't know if you can get it there. It's not too sweet and really tasty, stuff like Pink Grapefruit, Blackberry/Raspberry, Lemon Ice. All are sparkling water with natural juice. Do I sound like a commercial? I hope not. I don't like sodas, so this is an occasional treat. I like your ritual. It makes it more special, doesn't it? AAARRRGGGHHH! It's 4:30PM and 89 here! It's going to be a hot 4th! biscuit,
