I've actually noticed that sweet tea is getting far too sweet lately. I don't remember it being sweet to the point of instant diabetes when I was younger, but most places I go nowadays just overdo the sugar. I generally order half sweet/half unsweet, and the waitstaff is usually very understanding about that. I suspect that means I'm not the only one who has noticed a marked increase in sugar in sweet tea over the last few years.

Oh, and lemon is a must for me. No more refreshing drink on God's green earth than a properly sweetened tea with just enough lemon to give it the barest hint of fresh tart citrus.
