I hear you! I LOVE sweet tea. I have myself weaned down to 1/3 a cup in a gallon. I'd really prefer 3/4 to 1 cup a gallon. I don't really like it, but I know it's better for me and I'm hoping I'll get used to it. Maybe I'll try some of these suggestions.

I really like Iced tea too, but I found herbal teas don't really need much sugar. My favorites are blueberry and peach they make great iced teas.

That is true I really like raspberry zinger and it is yummy without any sweetener

I had raw honey to cold tea all the time-- you have to stir it pretty briskly, but it will mix in.

Alternatively, what about a squeeze of lemon or fresh orange? It's not sweet, but it disguises the bitterness of the plain tea nicely.

I like the idea of mixing black tea and fruity herbal teas. I'm going to try that tomorrow!

Maybe try fresh lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit, or mint leaves. Also try flavored teas.
