Another thing I learned about was iced tea - you make it WITH sugar. LOTS of it. I tried some of his aunt's tea once, added my own teaspoon of sugar and they looked at me like I was crazy. I shrugged it off, took a sip and WOWZA - that was some sweet tea!

Sweet Iced Tea is the table wine of the south. It is served very sweet and over ice.
Anyone who tells you that you should just "sweeten" cold tea by pouring a pack of sugar in it at the table is a yankee.
It is also served with any and every meal including breakfast. Though in a pinch, a cold coca-cola is also suitable for breakfast.
This is why southerners hate to travel outside the south. Yankees dont sweeten their tea when they brew it and think a pepsi is a suitable substitute for a coca-cola.
