This is how sweet tea saved a marriage. A woman and her husband had been married for over 30 years. Most of that time the marriage was good, but over the past few years it had taken a turn for the worst.

The husband had become abusive toward his long time wife. Every Friday he would go out drinking and come home and beat his wife so much so that she had to get medical attention.

She loved her husband very much and decided to go see the doctor to see if he could help her. When she talked with the doctor he asked what was happening and she told him that every Friday when her husband came home he would be drunk at beat her.

The doctor said that whenever the husband came in drunk, pour a tall glass of sweet tea and gargle with it and drink it and see how that does.

The woman did as the doctor said and the next time her husband came home drunk she poured a tall glass of sweet tea gargled it and drank it.

The woman went back to the doctor a few weeks later with a fresh new look and attitude about her marriage thanked the doctor and told him that his remedy worked wonders.

Her husband no longer beat her, he was more loving and was back to the man she married so long ago, and the doctor replied, 'See what keeping your mouth shut will do.'
