I like all of them but tradewinds is REALLY good... I never thought I would find some in a gas station I like but their "extra sweet tea" is really good

I wasn't sure if there was still a Bojangles in town after the Lakeside closure. But since they won a year ago I put them on the list.

Every time I visit my parents in West Virginia, I stop at the Bojangles in on the 220 North bypass in Roanoke for my sweet tea; since the Bojangles on Lakeside closed, most of my tea drinking is from Sheetz now, though Jersey Mike's has some surprisingly good sweet tea (for it being a northern establishment).

CFA wins for me. McD is decent, but not consistent (sometimes too sweet, sometimes just right, half the time they're out of it).

I've never had Chick-Fil-A's tea. When I go there, I always order their lemonade. But a friend also swears by their milkshakes.

Chik Fil A milkshakes - Best hands down.

Their lemonade is also terrific!

yeah, I'm glad you said it. I vote for the 4C powder that I mix up in a pitcher at home. The Lipton is also good.

Instant mix tea is a northern thing. Also, its revolting & shouldn't be described as tea.

sweet tea = southern drain-water

I can't stand the stuff, but am surrounded by people who love its dirty flavor. Here's my first use of the vomit dude: :vomit

Finally, someone who sees sweet tea for what it is.

It's a waste of perfectly good water.

I actually had a glass of sweet tea tonight at the Texas Inn, and I was surprised at how good it was. A hot, a bowl, and a sweet tea was my dinner tonight before church.

I voted for Mickey D's. You can't beat their large sweet tea for a dollar. Although sometimes they don't make it sweet enough.

And for the record, tea can't be TOO SWEET!
