Is the ice tea onboard brewed or is it nestea? Like any good southerner, I won't drink nestea.

The tea is not brewed. It comes out of a machine. I have watched the waiters fill the tea pitchers on the Glory straight from the dispenser.

It has a slightly different taste than what you may be accustomed to. It is hard to explain. I happen to love the tea that you can get in the dining room and have it every night. What I do up on lido deck is give the glass a shot of lemonade before filling the rest with tea. Yummy!

I am by no means a rocket scientist, but I'm guessing the 'iced tea' comes in a box in syrup form (in a bag inside the box), and is dispensed the same as pop or soda!

It's really the least expensive way to do it, and most bars/taverns in this area use this system. And it is really pretty good!! icon_smile.gif

I've never seen pitchers of 'iced tea' being brewed in the sun onboard ship which is my favorite!! icon_biggrin.gif

We were on the Triumph in March 2003 and the iced tea was unsweetened...basically brewed tea and you add your own sugar or whatever. Am sure it's much easier to go with unsweetened and then everyone can add or not add their sugar, lemon,etc. I drank it often and found it to be fine.

The tea on Carnival is not great. It is commercially made in large machines - not freshly brewed. I found that if I mix it with about 1/3 lemondade, it made a nice refreshing drink and took away the bitter tea taste.

 

Happy Sailing!
