In the South East, they bring you sweetened (usually far too sweetened for my tastes) iced tea. This is amazingly universal.
I live in NC and have been probing the border for years.
For “nicer” restaurants, the universal sweet tea boundary seems to be precisely at the NC/VA border.
Oh no old bean, no autocorrect involved…we call it char round here
Ah… that’s… interesting. Is there a reason why? And where is that? Cause I don’t think I’d ever connect the two. Like, if someone offered me a cup of char, I’d probably think coffee before tea. Cause one is at least significantly roasted.
