To make sweet tea:

Make a pitcher of iced plain black tea.

Boil a quarter of a small pot of water and add sugar. Add more and more until the water is sickly sweet. Let water cool and add to iced tea. Drink at your own peril. :)

Sweet tea is a strictly Southern thing - it's from Virginia south and east of Texas. Anywhere beyond that, iced tea is plain and you have to add your own sweetener. Here, you're lucky if you can get unsweetened tea when you go out to eat.

I really want to watch the BBC Persuasion now - I need more Austen!
