Short rant on ready to drink tea

Saturday, October 8th, 2011

I think there must be a rule that you must disclose the percentage of juice contained in a juice drink, I always see contains 23% juice, contains 100% juice.

I wish there was a rule for this on bottled / ready to drink teas. All too often there is more fruit juice than tea, or other ingredients that I believe have no bearing on being in a tea drink.

The real root of the issue is there are very few (but they are out there) good bottled/canned/ready to drink teas on the market. Too many teas I try taste like nestea powdered tea, overly brewed tea, or seem to have nothing but sugar and juice!

You may wonder why I don’t brew tea, and bring it with me.  I will admit a majority of the time I have bottled tea is at work for lunch.  The remainder of the time is while out at a fast food location, or traveling. I’ll just flat out admit to being tired and lazy.  I am living on my own for the first time, I have always had roommates before, and find there is never enough time in a day to do anything, sadly right now this includes brew tea. I am hoping to finish unpacking the new place, and settle in, and have more time.  In the interim I will be trying a variety of bottled and canned tea which are likely to disappoint, but perhaps I will find a few gems.
