Interesting... A macanoodle with tea. Hmmm.

Arizona Teas are brewed here in La Crosse at the nation's largest American owned brewery.

I love the Arizona Arnold Palmer. For 99 cents it can't be beat.

Real sweet tea is boiled on the stove and then added to the 1 1/2 - 2 cups of sugar already in the pitcher. :thumbs:

<----Sweet Tea Whore...Please do post a receipe!!!

If I'm not drinking liquor or coffee with a cigar, I'm drinking Lipton Black Tea, sweetened with NO lemon. Doesn't effect cigar flavor, and it nicely moistens.

Arizona makes the best damn tea in the world........ second only to mine!

I'm also a sweet tea whore in the summertime. I know some people think the lemon adversely affects a cigar's flavor, but not for me. Unless you just don't like it, you should add just a li'l lemon to balance out the flavor and smooth out the tannins.

You haven't had sweet tea until you've been to a fish camp down south....then you've experienced sweet tea! You fuggin northerners think adding a 1/4 cup of sugar to 2 quarts of tea makes it sweet....not for us Hillbillies! I have to take our Mr. Coffee teamaker (only because the hotel doesn't have a stove and this is the sole reason for us owning one), teabags, and sugar on vacation to Myrtle Beach each year because for some unknown reason, they don't believe in sweet tea there either. Must be all the Yankees that come down to vacation there too. :laugh:

I drink my tea mostly unsweetned. My drink of choice. Yeah yeah ok call me a Yankee.
When I have tea with a cigar though I like it sweetened with simple syrup.
1 cup sugar 2 cups boiling water. Let it cool and pour a little in the tea.

 

[Not A Nice Person]

I guess I'm still a Yankee even after a dozen years in Texas . . . a heaping half cup of sugar makes a gallon of sweet tea for me. I brew my own with Lipton's Ice Tea bags, and add the sugar and two bags to boiling water, then top off the pitcher with spring water. Good stuff. Probably go through half a gallon a day!

Haven't had a soda in years.

Not a real fan of sweet tea but I do like it once in a while. I will tell you though that the sweet tea vodkas that have come out are some of the most vile things ever made by man.

How 'bout sun tea Brian? I've got an old gallon glass jar that I fill to the brim with cool, clear water. Add three large tea bags (I use good 'ol Lipton) and sit the lid on top (don't close it). Take and sit it outside in the sun for a few hours and let it "brew". Add 1 1/2 cups sugar, a pinch of baking soda, and a couple lemon wedges (optional). Sun tea like Grandma used to make.

Dude! You need to see pictures of Jonesy's and Kingantz teeth. If you want a good reference look up Rob_K and his avatar. :whistling: All that sugar isn't what God had in mind when he gave us tea leaves.


Seriously, Cigarstone drinks Arizona Sweet Green Tea with a cigar all the time. He insisted I try it, and I must say, it was pretty good.

I LOVE sun tea. I'm so sick of ppl trying to say that it will cause salmonella. I grew up on sun tea and haven't gotten it yet!

Growing up in the north, raised on southern cooking was rather funny. I had this one friend all the way through college, who always said my tea tasted like Skittles.

I don't like lemon, and I would 'think' that it would effect the palate. The tannins don't bother me.

Jonesy, you still didn't give us a receipe!! Whats the water-tea ratio, when to add, how to boil, etc.... please do share!!!
