Not typically a green tea fan, it lacks the caffeine. However, I must say I enjoy this tea and its flavor. I am a big Tazo fan, so maybe that is clouding my true perception of it, but it is a very simple and refreshing flavor.

A great tasting, fun tea from Tazo. Great for a summer evening just laying around the back porch. As others have mentioned: it’s fairly sweet, but not enough to make you dislike it.

I like this as long as it is sweetened enough. I think it is better iced, though.

Tried it again, but I think it steeped too quickly. I added 2 packets of Splenda to try to save it, and it was indeed sweeter, but there was still a bitter aftertaste.

Had it at the cafeteria again recently. To someone else’s suggestion, I tried it with a hint of honey. I also put in a packet of Splenda, which was probably overkill. Definitely sweeter this time!

Smells deliciously sweet, like Fruit Loops. It was easy to oversteep, though, and quickly became bitter. I had an earl grey latte at Starbucks, and since Tazo is their brand, I think this was the base. The latte had the right balance of flavor and sweetness.

Now we’re in Tennessee, and our host has a bunch of teas. I was excited when I saw this one! It’s just as good as before—delicious white with a hint of blueberry. It smells very fruity, and I just love the flavor combination. This probably would be great with a blueberry muffin!

My favorite teas tend to be either fruit-flavored or white varieties. This one of course fills both categories, and I love it! The tea base has a delicate flavor (a plus—I like mild teas), and the berry flavors complement it nicely. One of my favorites.

The notes of cucumber and peach blend well, and add a nice high note to the blend of black and green teas. Sweetened, it’s got a lovely flavor to it, and is making this a quite nice morning.

Steeping for three minutes left it a little bitter. Will have to try again will a little less steeping time.

light yet tasty, but it was brewed by a starbucks barista. I recommend it at starbucks with a pump of vanilla syrup, which totally enhanced the flavour!

drank Organic Iced Green Tea by Tazo

I grabbed this in the airport to wash down the subway sandwhich I had for dinner last nite before my red eye flight. Green and white teas are my favorite and I knew iced tea would quench my thirst… I couldn’t easily (or more importantly PROPERLY) steep loose leaf hot tea anyway. I twisted the cap off, chugged about 1/4 the bottle, and IMMEDIATELY knew something wasn’t right… more specifically something was missing from the name of the tea. It should read “Organic Iced Sweet Green Tea”. I know some people would just rudely say “well it’s your own fault for not reading the label” (which I didn’t), but the real issue is that sweet tea and iced tea are two different things. This could get a diabetic or a gastric bypass patient in a whole lot of trouble. If you like sweetener (in this case sugar cane), this is a GREAT green tea flavored w/ spearmint, lemon grass, and lemon verbena. If you don’t (and I don’t), this isn’t the tea for you.

Well here in Canada iced tea is almost always sweetened, so that’s not a huge issue. But I still hate the AMOUNT of sugar that Starbucks unnecessarily dumps into their iced teas. They used to be a lot better than this.

I don’t have a problem w/ ordering tea @ SBUX anymore because I’ve learned (unfortuntely thru experience) to order it unsweetened, but IMO “iced tea” should be unsweetened by default- “sweet tea” is something completely different. This stuff was prebottled so I didn’t have that option.

Grabbed a bag of this during my conference Saturday afternoon, because it was the only thing left. Because of the yellow bag, I was expecting chamomile and was instead hit with spearmint. Bleh.

I swear Tazo has ben adding more and more sweetener to their bottled iced teas recently. I still enjoy the distinct but not overpowering taste of mint and the touch of lemon in this tea. It’s very refreshing and helps to clear my head.

It was perfectly fine before, so I don’t see why they felt the need to dump a tone of extra sugar in all of a sudden. >:(

Appealing to the general public, most likely. Bah.

Jillian

Bah, I hope Adagio and all the other good-quality tea suppliers never sell out to the man, especially if this is the result. grumbles

takgoti

Grumble grumble grumble something about corporate bullshit. We need a front porch and some cans to throw at passers by.

Cofftea

I agree!!! It should say “sweet” or “sweetened” in the name if it is!

ms.aineecbeland

I tend to not like sugar either, but I did not notice it being sweeter or more-so. I was surprised to find it in database already since folks only review real teas. Perhaps you should try Numi Teas, I am certain it has no sugar the one I tried few weeks ago. It is on the bland side but good when not wanting sugar. Best.

Minty tea is minty.

I can’t really taste any tarragon unfortunately, so this is basically pure mint. Although the very faint, slightly herby taste I get on the back of my tongue might be tarragon. If you squint and don’t look too hard.

Was tickled to find a bag that survived the tornado tin from my office … doesn’t look like it’s available any more.

Since my supply is dwindling, I didn’t want to ruin it, so was v-e-r-y cautious with time and temp (low on on both, so the green half didn’t go bitter) and it turned out just perfectly. A little sweet, a little fruity, a little vegetal—a nice little tripod of flavors.

I oversteeped a little …. can’t be very precise at work, but this does work iced. The cold brings out a little bit of a floral essence.

Temp in the teens, zero wind chill, sky like iron, spitting snow … just need a little joy inside and out.
