Speaking as a southern gal, a tall glass of ice tea with lemon and sugar all the way. As for coffee, I don't understand how people can stand the taste without covering the flavor with a load of sugar and cream. Yeeacch!

I like tea. I tried this African "red" tea just recently and it is delicious. I'm not much of an iced tea drinker, though. I mostly drink green tea, with nothing in it. I developed a taste for it when I was taking a Japanese language class. Never even finished the class, though. I know enough to say "Eego de itta, kudasai" (please say that in English).

green tea has no caffeine in it!!
Actually, green tea does have caffeine, but it's effect is subtler than the effects of the caffeine in other beverages. There is caffeine free versions, of course, but naturally, green tea does have caffeine

I probably forgot to mention that I think tea tastes nasty! I do like Starbucks frappuccinos, though. There's plenty of sugar, milk, and chocolate or vanilla to hide the bitter taste of coffee.
I like tea better than coffee, but the ocasional Iced Latte with three pounds of whipped cream is good. They have to be really super fancy sexy coffees otherwise they suck.

So that's how you spell "frappuccino"? That sounds wrong, oh well. They're awesome, and iced mochas. But coffee based anything drives me off the wall. If I'm not tired, I'll be pacing, muttering to myself, and singing random songs all night. That's why I prefer sweet tea with lemon.
