Clearly, I Have a Drinking Problem


Hooked on Sweet Tea.

It is a beautiful beverage, really.

Go make yourself a glass (my recipe)!

I too, am cup-holder-emptying impaired. Why toss it when there's another cupholder nearby?

Tammy said...

I say I am SOOO Southern, yet I drink un-sweet tea! Perhaps it's because my grandmother's had no less than a pound of tea in hers.

Sometimes I mix sweet and unsweet, but very heavy on the unsweet. Or I'll mix in a bit of lemonade with it.

*sigh* perhaps I'm not as Southern as I think I am.

If sweet tea is wrong, I don't want to be right!

The car-makers wouldn't give us so many cup holders if they didn't want us to use them!

Crystal said...

Replace Sweat Tea with Dr. Pepper and you know exactly what my car looks like. LOL

I understand your "problem". I have my very own...and I like it. No one can take away my Green Tea! NO ONE!

My car looks exactly the same way -- only instead of sweet tea, it's cans of sugar free Red Bull (and I wonder why I'm awake at 1:20 a.m. :-)

Heidi said...

The first step is admitting you have a problem. I think you are on the right track, but just in case, I can be your sponsor, let's meet at Chick Fil A and discuss your treatment.

How do you know which one is the 'current' one and not the hot gross one that has been in car for a few days???

Lori said...

As a northerner I've never even tried this sweet tea you speak of. I have to admit, I'm curious! Thanks for the recipe!

Melanie said...

You might try the sweet tea at McAlester's Deli sometime. It's pretty good. You know, if there is not a Chick Fil A in sight.

Here is the midwest, there are only TWO chick-fil-a's in my town. I love going to my parent's in Dallas where there is one just around the corner no matter where you are!

Valarie Lea said...

Yes, Yes I do :)

Natalie said...

that would sooooo be me too if i could spare the ww points...but instead i have changed my addiction to Sonic Diet Dr. Pepper! I probably have 3 cups in my car right now!

Muthering Heights said...

LOL, they must have a tea urn just for you at Chick-fil-A!

D... said...

You absolutely can't go wrong with Chick Fil A's sweet tea. No shame in that!

Gigi said...

I love that word; beverage!

Thoughts of THAT mom said...

I had that problem too...until one of my cup holders broke. After that, I quit drinking Dr. Pepper. Figured it was a sign.

I have the same problem except with the Diet Coke at McDonald's. This summer it was only $1.00 and I was going there WAY too often.

Ha! You always make me laugh, Kristen. Love the photo that went with this.

Thanks for joining the Hooked on Fridays blog party!! -Julia :-)

Robin @ The Rendered Nest said...

My husband is addicted to sweet tea, too! I am a Diet Coke addict myself, but neither of us can live without those styrofoam cups. I know that is not "green" at all. Don't they do a good job at keeping all of our crushed ice cold, though?! I think you have inspired me to post about how hooked I am on them! Thanks!

Le said...

Is that from McDonald's? I like it, but wow, is it sweet! Wish they'd tone it down a notch, lol.

Have a great weekend :)

Funny! LOL I'm a Coke Zero girl.

Ms. Tee said...

I really like sweet tea, as long as it's not toooo sweet. :)
Have a great weekend!

Oh I love iced tea,it's the best!. But I hate hot tea..I'm a weird British person, I can get drummed out of the country for not liking 'proper' tea :)

Unknown said...

Rue said...

I had no idea what sweet tea was until I moved out this way. I don't think they even have it in California LOL My husband loves it though so thank you for the recipe :)

Being a southern gal myself I had to check out your recipe it cracked me up but is so true and I hate to type this but my tea has more sugar than yours! (don't tell)! I am glad I found your blog I am adding it to my blogroll. Have a great weekend!

Well, the family and I just came home from two weeks in Florida. We live in Washington and there's no Chick-Fil-A here. I was so excited to try their sweet tea, seeing as it has been highly recommended by you in past blogs. I'm in love with it. And, now apparently in withdrawals. So sad. But I drank a ton of it and thought of you :-)

Roxanne said...

I was already liking your blog until I saw this post. Now I LOVE your blog LOL!

I live in New England--the land of NO sweet tea.

I've been stared at with suspicion when I've asked at restaurants. I've been told that the sugar is in the packet on the table. (As if sweet tea was JUST about sugar--sheesh!)

I even waxed eloquent about it on my own blog (if you want to see!):

I'm off to read more of your blog!
