Iced Tea

[mp170.6]

How come whenever "iced tea" (the real stuff) is offered at a restaurant, it's almost always warm?  Sure you can add ice cubes, but they quickly melt and the resulting drink still isn't cold. 

 

Yes, In-N-Out, I'm talking about you.

Basically it is just cold brewed tea.  The problem is they don't clean the tea containers often enough or keep them chilled and tea oxidizes when it isn't kept cold.  That is why you sometimes get tea that has a funny taste.

Because it is brewed at about 170 degrees, so yes it will be warm. If we were to say brew it really early in the morning, around 5am and refrigerate it, it won't taste as fresh. Just fill the cup to the top with ice and you'll be fine.

I love iced tea and am weeny if I get tea that is already cold. If it's freshly brewed, it should be warm. I like adding sugar to the tea and it dissolves better this way. The ice also helps agitate sugar when stirring.

Just make sure you don't order the fries. 

[Stradling]

Adam, you should try them again. What INO do you go to? I am down in your area now.

You'll get nothing, and like it!

Hey fools, I am not offering you delivery service. I just want to come see Adam's new house so I can compare it to mine, then laugh at his gayness. Stick, I don't manage one anymore, I have an area that I cover.

[St1ck]

Cool, I'll just start throwing your name around at all the south OC locations. 

[Stradling]

Well, they will know me, but good luck with the free stuff, haha.

[Adam]

I got to In N Out once or twice a year, usually when out-of-towners visit. 

 

But I'll come by the Laguna Hills Mall store whenever dude.

[Adam]

I'll bring my women.

I hear his place has some fabulous new furniture with that woman's touch for pattern and color.

Gentlemen, what are your feelings on iced tea mixed with lemonade?

[mancini79]

Strawberry lemonade is where it's at, homie.

My wife just texted me and said you are uninvited to the Christmas party.

Warm iced tea is a California thing. When an ex-girlfriend visited me after I moved to Texas, she was surprised by the types of ice (somewhere between crushed and cubed) a lot of restaurants use.

 

Also, when I ordered tea in California, I always had to specify "iced tea." Always thought that was weird

Fine. I'll just take my gingerbread bundt cake and go elsewhere.

When I was a kid I consumed mass amounts of this. I'm pretty sure it's only one chemical element away from crack cocaine.
