Sweet Tea
Sweet Tea is a glorious nectar descended from the God's of Holy beverages.
Sweet Tea isn't just a beverage, its a way of life. It such a huge part of the Southern culture that in places outside the South, store bought bottles of tea have a 'Southern-Style' label.

When it comes to Sweet Tea, the South don't play around. In 2003, Georgia State Representative, John Noel, and four co-sponsors introduced House Bill-819, proposing to require all Georgia restaurants that serve tea to serve sweet tea and only sweet tea. Representative John Noel, one of the sponsors, is said to have acknowledged that the bill was an attempt to bring humor to the Legislature, but wouldn't mind if it became law. It basically said you were to receive a misdemeanor if your did an un-justice act and served sweet tea not acceptable enough to give your body a diabetic coma. Now it was just an April Fool's joke, but you can see my point. Sweet Tea is a serious beverage and is nothing to play around with. People in the South drink Sweet Tea like the Irish drink beer.
For those curious, the simplest way to brew your own version of 'True' Sweet Tea is brew some tea and pour in lots of sugar and by 'lots', I mean enough to play Russian Roulette with diabetes
Truer words have never been spoken... I am actually enjoying an ice cold glass as a read this...
