Red Diamond

Being from Birmingham, I do love my Red Diamond. Tetley is a close second. I DO NOT purchase or consume ANY pre-packaged gallon tea, nor do I drink tea that has been in the fridge overnight. Don’t judge me you whiskey/cigar snobs, just accept it.

A fellow imbiber, great. I personally prepare mine, also, and leave it out in the sun for a few hours afterwards.

Red Diamond, since it's founding in 1906, was based in Birmingham, Alabama, until 11 years ago when they moved about 15 miles to the burbs.

It's Deep South tea at its finest.



Red Diamond tea is poetry in liquid form. It has a crisp, clean, refreshing taste that stimulates the senses and refreshes you.



Reily Food started in 1902 in Monroe, moving later to New Orleans, didn't really get into the iced tea business until 1932. They didn't know what ice tea was until then because they weren't real Southerners but were from Louisiana.

It's not classic Southern ice tea, but more an amalgamation of swamp gas flavorings and sickeningly sweet taste even with a very little amount of sugar added. The bags burst with even the slightest agitation also, which is bad for a tea bag.

There are many, many, many more things about Red Diamond that make it much better than Luzianne but, for now, this encapsulation will have to suffice.

Now the phrase "Roll Alabama Roll" is used constantly throughout the song but there is no mention of the tide. So was there a confluence of this Civil War-era shanty and the Alabama football team's nickname at some point? And when did the phrase, whatever it's origin, gain hold as the UA football war cry?

CSS Alabama was a screw sloop-of-war built in 1862 for the Confederate States Navy at Birkenhead on the River Mersey opposite Liverpool, England by John Laird Sons and Company. Alabama served as a successful commerce raider, attacking Union merchant and naval ships over the course of her two-year career, during which she never anchored in a Southern port. She was sunk in June 1864 by the USS Kearsarge at the Battle of Cherbourg outside the port of Cherbourg, France. [Wikipedia] ¬ Janet Thompson Deaver
