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.

      Can confirm for Switzerland. It’ll probably be some crappy tea bag quality, like lipton yellow or Twinings. They’ll also probably charge you 4-6 CHF (about the same in USD) for it.

      Same, although it’ll probably be served in a little teacup (about 2 cup’s worth) with a generic teabag in it. There may be a small pot of hot water on the side.

      (Europe as well)

      In the better restaurants and cafes they will bring you a cup of boiled water and a box of different kinds of tea bags from which you can pick one. (The Netherlands)

      Which country?
      This can vary wildly per European country, after all.
