BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA:



SECTION 1.

Article 13 of Chapter 2 of Title 26 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to food service establishments, is amended by adding at its end a new Code section to read as follows:
"26-2-379.
(a) As used in this Code section, the term 'sweet tea' means iced tea which is sweetened with sugar at the time that it is brewed.
(b) Any food service establishment which serves iced tea must serve sweet tea. Such an establishment may serve unsweetened tea but in such case must also serve sweet tea.
(c) Any person who violates this Code section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor of a high and aggravated nature."

Damn right! Nothing wrong with that proposal! My only problem with it is that violators won't be charged with a felony.
