No not bottles my friend; cans!

They all come in a variety of delicious flavors and are only 99 cents a piece for 24 ounces of liquid quench.

My personal favorites:

Georgia Peach Green Tea
Black&White Tea (only Arizona with real sugar)
Kiwi Strawberry
Rx Energy Herbal Tonic

They are cans. If you're smart you put a tall boy of beer in it and no one suspects a thing.

Just 24 oz. of your typical gas-station super-sweetened pseudo-tea. Nothing really special about it.

Fun fact: when Arizona proposed the sb-1070 law (harsh immigration shit), some Americans boycotted AZ Iced Tea despite it being brewed in New York.

I'm about to, I'm sleepy.

BTW, to the OP, 5 euros is way too much for a can.
They sell them here for $.99, I heard it's $.50 in Arizona?
Enlighten us Ryan.

They sell gallon jugs too. Perhaps this be what OP is considering.

And for can prices here: $1 with tax, if you're lucky. A lot of places will charge you even more even though it says $.99 on the can. Never seen it for less without it being on sale.

They dont come in cans in th EU, at least not that I know of. The bottles are hella expensive (saw one for 6,5Euros at a kiosk downtown)

Making your own tea (double the sugar and amount of tea (dont dip it up and down, like Ive seen some people do, it just makes it bitter)) and leaving it in the fridge over night > store bought

Remember to use fresh tea, not the shitty lipton/twinings stuff!

The ice hockey store here stocks alot of American imports, however a box of lucky charms is going to cost you £9.99

If you're shooting for the regular iced tea or the raspberry tea, shoot for the bottles. Taste 10x better.
However, if you want one of the juice/blend mixes or a sweet tea, cans are your only option.

I recommend:
The regular iced tea and raspberry tea, bottle
Mucho Mango, can
Arnold Palmer, can

Incorrect, Most of the ones in bottles use real sugar.

Arizon Ice Tea is a cheaper and sweeter version of snapple. Although it tastes way better than snapple, its made with almost no natural ingredients and is basically equivalent to chugging corn syrup. Terrible for you, but soooooo good. and cheap as shit, less than 1 american dollar.

Oh, and after physical activity, when I drink Arizona, I feel like my muscles are being eaten by insects.
My shoulders get so sore and tense, idk why though.
And it's only when I drink Arizona.

arizona tea used to come in bottles. actually it still does, but they cost more

the big deal about arizona tea is it's alot of drink for very little. sure the HFCS gives me terrible acid reflux after a bike or skate session, but it's gooder than hell and you can even share it with your friends if you're THAT thirsty and poor. gatorade in smaller amounts costs 1.39. hell, it's cheaper than water.

If you really were smart, you'd move to Europe so you could drink your beer and no one would even give a fuck.

arizona is ok iced tea. not all that good. HOWEVER, very cheap here in the US. makes up for what it lacks in taste, by its low price.

I was tripping once and about half way through my trip I pulled my unopened lemon tea out of the fridge for some much needed refreshment. I swear the first sip I took made me nearly throw up from it being too sweet. The already obnoxious amount of hfcs seemed to be multiplied by the large amount of acid I consumed earlier.

I never bought lemon tea again.

Not if I was smart, if I had the money.
However, I would rather move to British Columbia.

Hey, Americans, there was some dirty energy drink beer I was drinking (not Sparks), I think it was called High Voltage or some shit? Anyone know what it is? I can't find it anywhere. It's like 9% and gets you tanked.

The only thing that's SO great about them is they're only 99 cents.
Personally I prefer Peace Tea, because they don't use HFCS.

The reality is, almost every food in the States has High Fructose Corn Syrup in it.
They use it as a filler to make low fat food taste better.

It's a direct cause of obesity and diabetes.
