An sweet tea in the northern US is not the same thing as a sweet tea in the southern US.

Iced tea in Canada is sweetened tea and often flavored with something like lemon

It's considered a soda or a pop.

Iced tea in the States, at least where I've been, is literally just cold tea.

Yes. I don't think we really even have the concept of iced tea the way you mean it. Maybe because we're still a little more British? I've never seen cold, brewed tea on a menu, the way you mean it, that I can ever recall. Just sweet tea, something like Nestea, under the soft drink section and then hot tea.

you've got that reversed, or you've never been to the south. because ice tea here means someone added at least a pound of sugar to that gallon of ice tea.

Yeah I remember back before the Rona my family went down to the states and I ordered an iced tea at pizza hut and they all made fun of the face I made when I drank it. Totally different things

Too true. You need to specify unsweetened ice tea in the South.

I found that out as a kid when I was visiting my Oma and Opa in Virginia and we went out to eat.

I ordered an iced tea and was like "What the hell is this? This isn't what I asked for"

dont waste your time ordering it then, i've only ever been able to get unsweetened ice tea from a starbucks. everywhere else only sells it sweetened, and its always to excess.

That's weird. I live in the US and "iced tea" has always for me meant exactly what you described to be the Canadian version.

Also pretty sure hockeybub lives in my state so it might be a regional thing in the US too

I've lived in the South my whole life and I've always specified if I wanted a sweet tea or not. Usually if I ask for just tea I always get asked if I want it sweet or not.

Iced tea in Canada is much more like a juice. It might have a bit of tea flavor in it but its very sweet and there are definitely other flavors in there. You can buy like a Nestea powdered drink mix in Canada and make it like you would make powdered Gatorade. Its very artificial.

iced tea in the south is literally cold brewed tea. You can have it sweet or unsweet, but the base is literal tea.
