i tried one about a month and half ago for the first time. pretty good.
i hadn't ever tried don and millies until like November of last year. i don't know how i didn't know about the place until then.
Two cups per gallon I think meth is healthier.
I never order tea sweetened because then you can’t control what the restaurant does to it. Get it unsweetened then you can do what you want. I like the Arnold Palmer stuff that is sweetened with lemonade. It’s not for everybody but at least it’s consistent every time.
True. I get my unsweetened then add in my shooters to make it a John Daly special
My friend, allow me to introduce you to Type II diabetes.
Sweet tea was good as a child. Now?
You can try some actual flavor, not "tea" masked with 60g of sugar.
Unsweetened green tea from a bottle? Pretty good.
Matcha in things and prepared? Pretty good.
Matcha from powder and water? Tastes like f@cking dirt.
I think I've had Rooibos tea. Asked for water in a Sukiya and Ippudo in Japan.
Wasn't water. Tastes a bit like coffee water. Googled it later and said they serve Rooibos tea. Try it sometime if you like leftover coffee water flavored tea.

i appreciate the response.
i don't really like flavored teas, I've tried a couple of flavors.
i find green tea to be pretty gross, like I can't finish a cup gross.
i don't really like matcha either, my wife and daughter do though.
coffee is also something that i don't drink, it tastes like burnt or something to me. definitely not gonna drink coffee flavored water...
i do enjoy Mt. Dew (throwback and livewire).
Mountain Dew and sweet tea… You smoke cools and ride a bmx bike wearing a wife beater too? 😉
Spent a couple of years in MS and honestly can't remember drinking sweet tea there.
More recently spent over a decade in SC and discovered that the sweetness of sweet tea varied widely. If I ordered tea I always asked for a glass of water so I could dilute it if needed.
Loved Publix (they had great bread) but didn't shop there much as it was too expensive. Rarely shopped at "the Pig" as it wasn't convenient but went to Kroger and Food Lion mostly.
Since we are talking about the south and it's almost April this seems like a good time to mention the Masters. Which to me only means one thing - time to make pimento cheese.

Growing up in South Carolina and sharing the save sweet tea recipe I think we tend to overdue it in the south lol. I love it because it's kinda what I grew up on. But the average person from anywhere else but the south could probably go to McDonald's in Georgia/South Carolina and get a large sweet tea and pour half in another large cup and add water to both and be perfectly fine with the sugar amount lol.
Holla
Only went to Publix for the sandwiches and the seafood section. As far as grocery stores down south their seafood section is second to none. Like you said the rest of the place is expensive as shit.
Used to love Piggly Wiggly (the pig store) but none near me anymore. Not a huge fan of Kroger but love Food Lion and still do most of my shopping at Food Lion.

Publix is the shit. Great subs , fried chicken, and publix brand ice cream too. Always clean and well staffed . S.C . has got Sticky Fingers BBQ sauce that I love.
