You could always sweeten with a little local honey if necessary.

love unsweet tea. Lipton and Louisiana.
At work, I'll sometimes cut the bitterness with a small packet of stivia, but that is rare.

I made the switch in college. I like unsweet tea. I make mine with 2 black bags and 1 green per half gallon. I like black coffee straight too.

I use 4 splenda for a 12 oz cup and it taste just like sweet tea

Unsweetened is so much better then sweet tea

I have been drinking it that way for years.My wife buys the family size tea bags.I have a Mr Coffee iced tea maker and use 4 tea bags with 1 cup of splenda.

I don't add sugar to anything. Never have. Can't drink tea or coffee that's sweet.

seems like a lot of splenda
I cant drink sweet tea, it is almost like syrup. I do like about 1/4 sweet tea added to my unsweet. It is perfect then.

Just add lemon, no sugar - Duh !

It's 1 cup per gallon. It may be a lot but its not overly sweet by any means.

I can drink coffee black if I have to and it doesn't bother me, but can't adjust to tea without any sweetener. Can manage drinking half and half sweet and unsweet tea mixture, though.

I can't even drink sweetened tea anymore. Unsweetened with lemon is the best.
Don't like sugar in coffee either. Just a little milk.

Yep. If I'm drinking tea it's going to be sweetened. With real sugar.
that would take about 8 packs of real sugar for me. 3 splendas and im good

Always unsweet with lemon for me, but the tea needs to be brewed properly so it isn't bitter. My wife is quite a tea snob, but she does brew some great blends for iced tea.

Splenda is made with straight chemicals. Truvia is slightly better.
Stevia is more organic (made from a plant) and not made with the same artificial processes as the other two.
Does being made from a plant make it healthier?

I always drink my tea unsweetened. I'm used to it and can't drink it any other way. If they give me unsweetened tea I send it back.

Idk how anybody drinks sweet tea, shite is nasty. I have had unsweet tea my entire life and it's 100x better than with sugar in it. Idk who the first person to add sugar to tea was but they are retarded....
And btw one thing i hate about the terminology. It's just tea and sweet tea, not unsweet tea. They don't make it sweetened and then unsweeten it, it's just tea.

Don't put any sugar in my coffee but I'd much rather drink water than unsweet tea. I usually only drink sweet tea when I'm eating out though so I already plan to be unhealthy

I only drink sweet tea if it's an Arnold Palmer. I'm not a big fan of unsweetened iced tea either, but I prefer it to sweet tea.
