I'm on a mission to find the best sweet tea around here. Not the bottled stuff. Not the lightly sweetened "is there even sugar in this" version. I want proper Texas sweet tea where you can feel the sugar dissolving your teeth.
Fast food sweet tea counts. Sit-down restaurants count. That place your grandma swears by definitely counts.
Chick-fil-A is the default answer but I know there's better out there.
Chick-fil-A is the gold standard and I'm tired of people trying to find something better. It's sweet tea. They perfected it. Move on.
McDonald's sweet tea for $1 is the best value in fast food beverages and I will die on this hill. They put an absurd amount of sugar in it.
My church potluck sweet tea made in a 5 gallon cooler with approximately 4 pounds of sugar. Nothing in a restaurant comes close.
Any southern home cooking restaurant. The ones with the big plastic pitchers on the table. That's where the real sweet tea lives.
Raising Cane's sweet tea doesn't get enough credit. It's dangerously good.
