Iced tea is popular in the southern United States and perhaps all over the country. England is a country known for its love of (hot) tea, though I do not recall any Englishers being fond of iced tea.

So, do any of our English (or Scottish, or Welsh, or Irish, or Northern Irish) posters drink iced tea?

Discuss.

They don't even drink cold beer, much less cold tea. :-D

Iced Tea is not really a "thing" in England, although you can buy it in Supermarkets so there must be at least some call for it....I quite like it....prefer iced coffee though...and yes I drink cold beer!

Na, I never have & I can't say I've ever seen it in any café. I do like iced coffee in the summer, my version of it. I make a few mugs of instant coffee, let 'em get cold & put them in the fridge, very nice on a hot day.

Never saw anyone drink it in England in the 31 years I lived there. Or put an orange slice in their beer.

What about up in Trudeau Turf? Do any of the "Peoplekind" drink iced tea there?

Never heard of orange slices in beer before now. Thanks for the bad news.

Maybe Old Blighty's weather is just too cold for iced tea?

I don't care for tea in any form, but iced coffee is a delight when the weather's right.

Time to burst a few bubbles.

The warm beer remark came out of the 2nd world war and needs to stay there. Nobody except real ale beardy weirdies drink that shite.

No we don't drink ice tea except in a pre mixed bottle which you can see in supermarkets. Never seen it in a café or restaurant as a drink.

Guinness is Irish NOT English.

And given you drink Budweiser and Coors not sure any 'murican can claim to be a beer drinker cos that stuff is just vile.
