Guide Review - Sweet Leaf Iced Tea
My biggest complaint with bottled iced teas, is that they are usually over-sweet and have no tea taste to them. This is not a problem with Sweet Leaf bottled iced tea. They are sweetened with cane sugar, which makes the taste much less overpowering than some other common drink sweeteners.I tried the original, peach and green tea mango flavors of Sweet Leaf iced tea and was impressed with all 3. Here are my thoughts on each one:
Original Blend
Well, the original iced tea is just what it's supposed to be. An old-fashioned iced tea with hint of sweetness and tasting like tea. Simple and very refreshing.
Mango with Green Tea
I found the mango taste was fresh, fruity and strong, but with not too much green tea flavor.
Peach
The peach was much like the original, with a clear taste of tea along with a hint of peach. Not as fruity as the mango, though.
Overall, I really enjoyed the Sweet Leaf iced teas mainly because they taste like iced tea should. Having only natural and organic ingredients doesn't hurt either. I wish I had had the chance to taste a few more varieties. The pomegranate green tea sounds like an interesting combination.
