Flip Burger and Popeyes Chicken

2011-06-12T20:14:00.004-04:00

I forgot to mention during my trip down south I was fortunate enough to get the taste of southern sweet tea from Popeyes chicken! It was delicious and enough so that I will venture to a local Popeyes chicken to determine if it was just that delicious because it was down south or if it's just that delicious.

Now today we had Flip Burger at the Polaris Mall and I saw they had sweet tea as an option and of course I had to try it. Well, it was a good decision. Tasted like a normal sweet tea but if was a nice light taste and just sweet enough. Not sure if its worthy of the top 5 classification but I would definitely order it again.

Gettin back to the Sweet Tea blog

2011-06-10T12:29:00.002-04:00

So I haven't been very active on the blog for quite sometime and after my trip to Georgia this last weekend, and enjoying the southern style of sweet in the south, I am going to get back to some sweet tea reviews.

The first is KFC sweet.....in Kentucky! Not much to go on as we got some during a quick lunch break but, they use Lipton Teas for their sweet tea, and when it comes to bottled sweet tea, Lipton is on the top of my list!

Johnny Buccelli's

2010-02-21T23:34:00.003-05:00

Of course I had there sweet tea today! I have a feeling the may end up creeping up on the top five list. They have been extremely consistent with how there sweet tea taste. Maybe one more try and I'll see where they stand.

go and check them out and let me know what you think!

Does anyone want to know what number 1 is?!?!!?!!?

Pomegranate Sweet Tea

2010-01-20T21:54:00.001-05:00

Of course, their sweet was pretty good today. A little leafy as it seemed it was probably there for awhile. But ok none the less.

NUMBER 2 BEST SWEET TEA IS........

2010-01-14T00:33:00.002-05:00

City BBQ!!!! Try it if you haven't!!!

Happy New Year!

2010-01-03T03:54:00.002-05:00

I hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable New Year's! I had some McDonalds sweet tea the other day and sure enough, it did not fail me! Freshly brewed! And fyi, they brought back the cherry pie!!!

Merry Christmas!!!

Waffle House Sweet Tea

2009-12-24T01:27:00.004-05:00

Just had some Waffle House sweet tea over the weekend and it was pretty awesome!

Update

2009-12-24T01:27:00.003-05:00

Ok, to keep up to date here, Johnny Bucelli's has some pretty darn good sweet tea. And I had some Chic fil a sweet tea the other day as well.....it was alright.

BJ's Brewhouse Sweet Tea

2009-12-17T00:12:00.002-05:00

So yesterday we how our team X-mas get together at BJ's brewhouse. And of course I got their sweet tea. Perfect timing since the number three spot in the top five belongs to......BJ's!

Yay 10 followers!!!!!!!!

2009-12-11T00:00:00.001-05:00

I forgot about Scrambler Marie's!

2009-12-10T23:49:00.003-05:00

They have an awesome sweet tea! Not top five worth but I will highly recommend it. Problem is....who drinks sweet tea for breakfast?!?! Well....I do since I saw that they offered it.

Rooster's Today

2009-12-10T23:45:00.003-05:00

Had some Rooster's sweet tea today for lunch. It's not bad but can be extremely inconsistent depending on who made the stuff. It looks almost light a light colored green tea. And almost has a slight green tea flavor. My guess is that it's some sort of blend. It's not bad and depending on what you are getting a Rooster's, I would recommend it.

So, its been far too long since my last post......

2009-12-10T23:38:00.002-05:00

Well I've had quite a few sweet teas and haven't blogged about them. I know I know, I dropped the ball. Well I'm back on here to try and catch up. So first things first, coming in at Number 4 on the top five list......McDonalds! Yes I know, many of you will say "come on, that's not right." Well if you could get the same great tasting sweet tea at every McDonalds then yes, it would be higher up on the list. But, YOU CAN'T!

Cici's Pizza Sweet Tea

2009-09-22T22:50:00.004-04:00

Can't say I'm too impressed with Cici's sweet tea by any means. I have definitely had much worse. Their sweet tea reminds me of Lipton cold brew iced tea. Which isn't bad in itself, but just isn't worth it in a restaurant setting.

Coming in at number FIVE

2009-09-20T11:19:00.015-04:00

Hooter's!

Hooter's Sweet Tea can be quite enjoyable as long as it remains fresh. I recommend everyone to take the time and try this sweet tea!

Top Five Countdown!

2009-09-20T11:17:00.002-04:00

Be prepared! The Top Five List will be coming one by one! Check back for the lastest posting of the TOP FIVE!!!

Buffalo Wings and Rings

2009-09-20T11:06:00.002-04:00

I stopped by Buffalo wings and Rings during the Buckeye game yesterday and gave their sweet tea a shot. Well, I think the easy way to put it is that their sweet tea tastes like a dirty wash cloth was mixed in with the tea. So, definitely not going to make any top five or even top ten list. I wouldn't recommend the sweet tea at all. Wings are ok, appetizers are pretty darn good. Sweet tea sucks.

It's just about time

6 Followers..... My friends are weak! I'm putting up a facebook status to join my sweet tea blog. Here goes nothin!

Pomegranate Again

2009-09-10T01:09:00.002-04:00

So I went to Pomegranate today for a work luncheon and I must say that it was the best service I have ever had there!!! Thank you Pomegranate! The waitress was kind enough to give me two glasses of sweet tea and she kept it coming as soon as I was done with one. The sweet tea seemed a little sweeter than normal, and of course, makes it more enjoyable for me.

Wendy's Sweet Tea

2009-09-06T08:43:00.005-04:00

Ok, since McDonalds have been advertising their Sweet Tea along with their $1.00 drinks, Wendy's finally came out with a Sweet Tea. It is definitely not top five worthy, but is a good tasting sweet tea in its own right. It's pretty pain, and as long as it comes cold, its pretty tasty. Nothing really stands our from this tea. If you went to a gas station and got the Lipton Sweet Tea, not the extra sweet southern style, just the regular sweet tea, it would probably remind you of the Wendy's sweet tea. I enjoy the food at Wendy's and since I don't mind the sweet tea, it makes for a more enjoyable meal.

Waffle House!!!

2009-09-06T08:34:00.007-04:00

Ok, I used to LOVE their sweet tea. Waffle House is great any time of day and their sweet tea is always readily available. They call it "Alice's Iced Tea." They use a vendor called "Royal Cup" who combines different tea flavors with a china black tea to create their sweet tea. They store it in a warm container and pour it over ice, so sometimes if you forget to stir/shake it, you'll get a hint of warm tea. None the less, it was once on my psudeo famous top five list at one time but has since lost its standings. If you are craving sweet tea at 3:00 a.m. then Waffle House is the place to go. As long as there isn't a McDonalds near by ;-)

Pomegranate Mediterranean Cuisine

2009-09-06T08:28:00.004-04:00

So I've been a little behind on my blog posts, so I'll have a few posts coming here soon. A couple of weeks ago I had some sweet tea from Pomegranate over on N. Hamilton Rd. The brand of tea they have is Shangri La. If you prefer a more leafy tea flavor than the sweet flavor, then this is the sweet tea for you. This is one sweet tea that probably would have been a little better with a lemon in it. But, the food there is great! So if you have the opportunity to go there, do it. My only negative experience about that place is customer service is hit or miss. My last time there was good but the time before that, the customer service was a wreck.

Raisin' Canes

2009-08-23T11:13:00.004-04:00

Since I sadly haven't been to Raisin' Canes in awhile, I decided to take care of that by getting a "Jug" of their sweet tea. It has been and still is my favorite restaurant/fast food sweet tea. They are more consistent than any other place with how their sweet tea taste and simply put, its my favorite.

McDonald's on the way home

2009-08-23T11:10:00.002-04:00

So I stopped at a McDonald's on the way home from the Outer Banks. I believe it was somewhere in Virginia. Anyway, the sweet was a little different than it is up here in Ohio. Not sure why, but it seemed to taste a little less leafy. It was good, just a little different.

A Root Beer worth mentioning

2009-08-23T10:59:00.006-04:00

So while in North Carolina I had the pleasure of trying Lighthouse Root Beer and simply put, this stuff is amazing! Probably the best root beer I've ever had. Virgil's was always my favorite but this one definitely takes the cake. I highly recommend it if you ever have the chance to try it.

Jimmy's Seafood Buffet in North Carolina

2009-08-18T23:50:00.004-04:00

This sweet tea deserves a mention. The waiter kept the sweet tea to the brim for our table! This was one of the freshest sweet teas I have had in quite some time. I'm not sure how it will fit into the rankings of restaurant/fast food sweet teas since I'm not completely sure where/how many Jimmy's Seafood Buffets there are. BUT, their sweet tea is amazing! I would put it in the top three on my list if I knew there were more readily available to me. I'll do some more research on this to determine whether they should go on the list or not.

If you have the opportunity to go to Jimmy's Seafood Buffet, I would suggest you do!

McDonalds Sweet Tea tonight

2009-08-15T01:14:00.004-04:00

Tonight I had some McDonalds sweet tea. Their sweet tea is one of the more sweet sweet teas, of which I prefer, and tonight was no exception. Nice and cold and it came in the new plastic cups instead of the styrofoam cups. Yeah, those wonderful styrofoam cups where if you don't put the straw in just right, you poke a hole through the cup and GREAT you have a sweet tea flood on your hands.... And half the time the employees' hands are greasy and end up transferring that wonderful grease onto the wonderful styrofoam cup that loves to attach to grease...UGH! Hahaha! Enough whining, the McDonalds sweet tea was everything I know and love!
