People might look at you like you have three heads every time you go emphasize UNsweet tea, but what’s the problem? I’d rather not DRINK my sugar, sorry.

I was also that kid ordering tea with my Happy Meal, which I’m sure every worker thought it was for my mom, but really, I just love my tea. Which is how I effectively became, the “Tea Connoisseur”. Everyone who knows me knows that where ever I am, I can and will, always point out the best tea.

I start every day off with my tea, and if you cross me before then, there’s a good chance you’ll leave without a head. I’ve learned to accept the looks I get, especially from the pesky southerners, that my unsweet tea addiction is not widely accepted. I’ve had to start restricting my tea consumption, because all the caffeine was causing sleeping problems- FROM TEA.

I get asked daily how I can drink my tea without sugar, which I sarcastically reply, “How do you drink it WITH sugar?”

I’ve been stuck in my ways, for 16+ years, and changing my ways is not going to happen, because SWEET tea is too tough to swallow.

My Top 3 Teas:

-Bread Co (Panera, for you darn non-St. Louisians)
