I want my lemon ice tea!

In a big city like Paris we can think it's possible to have or get anything. Wines, spices, books, vegetables and general products from all over the world. Normally I don't bring stuff from abroad because I can find everything here... or almost.

There's one thing I like very much and it doesn't exist in France: lemon ice tea. Yes, and I repeat, there isn't bottled ice tea, lemon flavoured in France! :-P

You can find all other flavours like mango and peach everywhere. From the top brands to the budget ones, no one offers lemon as a choice.
However there's lemon flavoured... water!! So they don't use lemons for ice tea, but to add flavour to water! eheh

Italy, Spain, Portugal, England... in these countries you can have lemon ice tea everywhere!

Recently some friends visited me and they brought me lemon ice tea for a month... if they were caught by customs I think they could have been accused of smuggling! eheheh

I think I'm going to start a lemon revolution! eheh I want my icea tea! :-P
