So this was in the fridge today when I got hom, apparently this tea came as a free sample with one of the birthday presents my mom got me (I must be getting something tea related = yay!).
Anyway this tea is okay. It is a little…weird. It has a vegetal taste almost like tomato juice. It is certainly not bad or undrinkable. It is just weird. I think it smells pretty decent but my mom didn’t like the way it smelled. Anyway I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to have this tea but if it was there I would definitely drink it again. I just have a soft spot for unsweetened iced tea – even weird ones – haha.

It’s the vitamin C they ruin it with… er… add to it. lol. Why can’t I find a RTD tea that isn’t ruined in some way? Sigh… :(
I’m not sure it’s cuz I’ve just missed it every time I’ve read the discription (I can’t imagine how it’s even possible) or if it’s a new ingredient, but I think I’ve determined what the problem w/ the weirdness is… "THERE’S BAKING SODA IN THIS!!!*
Okay thats just weird. Vitamin C I can understand as a vitamin or I of heard of it as a preservative but baking soda????
They claim it’s to reduce acidity… I swear I’ve never seen it listed before- I would have noticed that!
Yeah and I just think why add unnecessary ingredients. I like my iced tea to have tea and water in it, but thats probably not everyones preference.

Ah – I agree that is probably it. I just like straight up iced tea nothing in there.

Weird – is white tea acidic? Or is it to reduce the acidity from the added vitamin C – haha?
I don’t know… lol. It makes NO sense to me. Tea seems like it would be more of a base than an acid.

Unfortunately not, but I agree w/ you =D
Haha – oh well at least I can make my own that way
