nice and refreshing. I like every bottled tea I’ve tried by Honest Tea. Lack of artificial sweeteners puts them head and shoulders above other RTD teas. I can actually taste the tea and peach, not just sugar!

This is pretty good. I’ve been wanting to try Moroccan mint tea. I don’t know how “authentic” this is, but it’s refreshing. Definitely a strong mint flavor, the tea is barely noticeable.

Not bad. I’m not sure how I feel about their “just a tad sweet” philosophy. I like plain tea, and I like sweet tea, but this kind of tastes like watered-down sweet tea. I didn’t even get much tea flavor until I got to the bottom of the bottle. On the other hand, I appreciate that they’re giving us a low-sugar option.

Tried this on “lunch” break at 1 AM this morning – the hospital I work at has a few iced tea options from Honest Tea, and I know I’ve had stuff from them before, but I think it was before I was a full blown tea addict (oh, so long ago haha) so I can’t remember which ones they were.

This tea was sweetened and definitely an identifiable peach flavor. I wish I had had a black tea base with it as I love peach iced tea that way, but nope, that wasn’t one of my options. I’m sure that my palate has changed to become more selective, too, because this tastes…bottled. There’s something vaguely chemically about it that I just don’t like. Kind of like how “sweet tea with lemon” that is RTD does not have an authentically lemon taste.

Eh. It was nice to have an iced tea option for lunch…I’ll just probably try a different one next time.

I am addicted to this tea. Seriously. I have a very bad stomach and juice just doesn’t appeal to me. I drink water most of the time, no bubbles, and it gets boring. I love the slight sweetness and when I taste the hint of raspberry or strawberry.

Very medicinal, didn’t finish it.

I really like this tea, and it’s my boyfriend’s favorite. It’s sweet enough to balance out the sharp black tea taste, and authentic peach flavor comes through well. Nice if I want a bit of caffeine in a refreshing drink.

I love this stuff! It’s definitely one of my favorites. Light, refreshing flavor, but not weak, lemony but not overwhelmingly so, flowery smell, and very complex. It might be too flowery for some, but I love it.

This tea is pretty nice for what it is – a hibiscus-y, lightly sweetened herbal bottled tea. It’s just not as nuanced as the yerba mates, black teas, and tulsis that Honest Tea produces.

I usually drink this if my 3 other favorite Honest Teas are bought out. It’s certainly tasty, though, just not quite as flavorful as the Peach Oolong.

I love this stuff, and I’m really sad my local co-op stopped carrying it. It’s super refreshing with solid lime flavor and a nice sweetness.

I love the refreshing nature of this tea! I am very picky about fruit flavored teas as some without sweetner can be a bit too tart for my taste, but this has the light fruity flavor of the peach without any tartness. I also don’t typically do sweetners in my teas, but this was just right. An excellent tea for a hot summer day!

Probably wouldn’t recommend this over some of the other Honest Tea flavors, but I get these with my meal plan card at my school and they don’t have many options. It’s alright. Personally, I’m glad it’s not ridiculously sweet, but someone who’s looking for just that would be disappointed.

I was excited to find this on the shelf today. However, I wish I had read these reviews first. Unfortunately, I was pretty thirsty when I came home from shopping and was really looking forward to drinking this tea. I can easily say it was the worst iced tea I have ever drank in 47 years. If I didn’t know better, I would swear I was drinking Vicks 44, Nyquil or some other cough syrup. Obviously, I didn’t finish the bottle. Tap water was looking pretty good after a few sips.

This is a review for the iced tea version. At $0.99/bottle on sale, how could I resist? Honest Tea is the company that turned me to lightly sweetened ice teas, so they have a soft place in my heart. This one tastes a bit odd, like you can almost taste the blackberry and raspberry powder. If you are looking for a loose-leaf tea, I would recommend DavidsTEA’s “Bear Trap” over this one.

This is one of my favorite ice teas, not too sweet with a nice bite. Honest tea’s was one of my favorite companies and I loved how they refused to serve iced tea that had 50g of sugar in it. My favorite flavor of all time was their decaf ceylon. Sadly it was discontinued because they got bought out by coke. Now they are owned by coke and all their new teas have more sugar in them. Enough said.

Its pretty good. I got this pretty much free along with some other Honest Teas from a site that offered 10 off my first order. I ended up with four of these teas and some other really cool items for 5 bucks shipping.
Anyway all that aside … its good. I like having some iced teas ready to go in the fridge that I didn’t have to steep already bottled and ready to go.
What I REALLY love about this tea is that OPUS is on the label!
I had no idea until it arrived today.
If you have no idea who this is you will have to read up on it here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_County
Just so you know my personal love for this character – well he along with his cohort Bill the cat, is nicely and forever tattooed on my tuckis!
Oh the good ol days of careless abandon!
So not only is this tea good but every time I have it – it will bring back fond memories for me – and I don’t have to try to strain to see my own behind! :)

gmathis

I love Opus! (Did you ever see their Christmas special, “A Wish for Wings that Work?”)

Indigobloom

memory tea!!! love those :P

Azzrian

gmathis I am pretty sure I recall this – oh how I would LOVE to see it now! Some things however are a blur…

Indigobloom – yes always love the memory evoking teas! :)

ashmanra

Gmathis: I OWN “A Wish for Wings That Work.” When I went to order it, the clerk told me there was no such thing as a Bloom County Christmas special because she was their biggest fan and had never heard of it. She was pretty surprised when my copy came in, I guess! Hysterical! We also love Calvin and Hobbes and have every book.

Azzrian: pardon me if this is too personal, but I can’t think of anything more fun to have tattooed on one’s tuckus than Opus and Bill, whom my children referred to as Opus and Phil when they were too little to speak properly! You must grin every time you catch sight in the mirror!

ashmanra

Sorry, it was Focus and Phil they called them!

Dylan Oxford

What’s funny, is that every time someone writes about the pu’erh ‘touchas’, I pronounce it like I would the slang term mentioned above… and it makes me giggle.

Azzrian

Too personal naaaa Im not shy! LOL
Yeah I forget it is there ya know then I turn around and ACK!!! MY ARSE!!! Hahaha
LOL Dylan!!

Azzrian

Ashmanra that is so so cool about the movie! I bet that girl ordered her own ASAP!
That is so cute about your kids saying the names that way. :)

ashmanra

I thought it was pronounced two oh chas. I went in a tea shop and everyone who works there says it with this nasal twang like they are really speaking Chinese which is hysterical when inserted in a regular English sentence. It sounds like they are attacking the word with Kung fu. “Yes, ma’am, we do have mini T – OW – ooOOoo cha.”.

Indigobloom

okay I just have to chime in here. In Polish, Oczas (pronounced Ochas by the youngsters, and I know I’m not spelling that right) means “eyes”. So when I see Tuochas, I think.. “two eyes”

gmathis

Ashmanra, our copy of A W for W…is intact still, too. Must-watch Christmas TV.

Azzrian

LOL I pronounced it Too Ka
I have never been good at correct pronunciation of words.

Kittenna

ashmanra – in my head I pronounce tuochas the same way you do. Found out recently that I’ve been pronouncing rooibos quite incorrectly… so who knows.

Azzrian – interesting to know the things people get tattooed! I know a guy with a barcode on his butt :P

Missy

@ Krystaleyn That’s why we call rooibos kangeroo. When I look at the spelling I try to say it rue bose. I’ve been told its roy bus. blah blah fine then it’s kangeroo now even if that animal is on the wrong continent…

If you are a fan of an Arnold Palmer now and then, give this one a shot. It’s not the sweetest half & half I’ve had and the tea gets masked some by the lemonade. I’d pick it over most of the others I’ve found in stores.

It has just enough sweet to balance the green tea. It’s good for when you’re in a hurry but want a decently flavored green tea on the go.
