    East Tennessee here, by way of Texas, Florida and Georgia. When I first moved here in 1990, it was difficult to find sweet tea in restaurants, now its fairly common.

    My wife's from Florida and was brought up in Georgia and now lives in Texas, and I'm moving out there soon.

    Kinda counts, right?

    Technically southwestern area of Virginia, only 8 miles from the TN line, definitly southern. If you have ever been to the area, you know what I mean.

    NC girl here and southern all the way :)
    Lived in Tennessee for a little over a year (BTW they did NOT have sweet tea at most places), and moved back to NC.


    What??? No sweet tea? :noway:

    OMG it's so funny when we go visit my family up north and my husband asks for sweet tea in a restaurant, and the waitress just gives him this blank dumbfounded look! And then proceeds to bring him a pot of hot tea, and a glass of ice!

    If NC isn't considered the south, or is even considered toeing the line, then you've never experienced true NC.

    The part where directions are given by saying ":you pass the 40 acre field and turn left on the dirt road until you get to that big oak tree..."

    Um exactly where "up north" are you visiting? I live in Massachusetts and I don't think I've ever been to a restaurant that doesn't serve iced tea. They may not have it pre-sweetened but they will bring you sweetener for it.

    Elizabeth -- Where I lived in New York state, most restaurants had no idea what sweet tea was. They knew iced tea, but they wouldn't know sweet tea was iced tea unless they'd lived or visited a place that had it.

    Although I guess if the waitress brought ice, she knew it was supposed to be cold, so that part is very, very odd.
