Welcome to American regional cuisine...
That may be true on I-40 (??) but not in this part of TX...you just order "iced tea" and doctor it the way you wish - a very few places will offer you "sweet or unsweet" but never assume you want that syrupy mess....

I used to use "Sweet & Low" but unsweetened iced tea is now "da bomb" for me!
