See, I won't drink the sweet tea. Unsweetened only for me please.

I enjoy iced tea in the summer but after a couple weeks it makes my kidneys hurt. I blame the tannins in the tea for this. No problem with 4-5 cups of coffee per day.

Be careful.....say that around here you might get involuntarily committed for a 48 hr psych hold LA (Lower Alabama) was even worse about it - asking for unsweet tea....you may as well have just called her momma a bunch of nasty things....same level of insult

I know, same around here. Everyone drinks sweet tea. Once in a while, I will fill a glass about 1/8 full with sweet tea and the rest unsweetened. Use the sweet "tea" which is just liquid sugar for a sweetner. I can't actually drink sweet tea, and the 1/2 cut is still too sweet. The way it is made around here is how much sugar will the solution hold in saturation?. Then put a little more in so it falls out of solution and settles on the bottom of the glass. Thats how they know they have put enough sugar in their tea. Not for me...

Reminds me of Mrs. DaGroot, Al Bundy's librarian, add, stir, add, stir, add, stir, add, stir ......
