RE: What is Sweet Tea?
Hot sweet tea with a shot of whiskey in is the ideal solution!

RE: What is Sweet Tea?
I once read that coffee is the drink of concentration, hence favoured in all situations requiring focus, e.g studying, writing reports, etc.

Tea, on the other hand, enables multi-tasking and socialising and hence is known as the drink of diplomats.

Personally I like both and have spent many a night working to a deadline with the help of coffee (although red wine works too), but NEVER with sugar. I can't stand sweet drinks!

I'm with you on that. I understand why people add sugar to coffee but never to tea. And I like both my tea and coffee strong.

This might be one of the oddest threads we've ever had on here.

Same! I love strong tea and coffee, both without sugar. I start my day with tea and then move on to coffee (decaf -so I can sleep!) I AM intrigued by this English sweet tea, though. If I ordered it in a restaurant in London would they know what I was talking about?
Also, I never heard that coffee is favored in situations requiring focus. I will have to try that at work. And tea is favored for socializing. Hmmm, we should all get together in London for a Spooks Tea!

I'll come to a Spooks Tea provided there's coffee! Just the smell of tea makes me feel nauseous.

A Spooks Tea Party now that's an idea - would we be able to work out who each other was by our drinks preference?

langley, they'd just serve you the tea and you'd add sugar from the little packets on the table. The only time they'd probably add it for you was if you were getting it take away. Ditto with coffee.

Completely the opposite here, love tea (no sugar of course) but the smell and taste of coffee makes me feel ill.
