I’ve never been much of a tea drinker. My favorite beverage of all time is water…but I know that tea has its benefits and water does get kind of boring after awhile. Lee often buys fun drinks from Central Market and I end up sampling here and there. One day I tried Mango Acai White Tea made by Honest Tea and it was amazing! Sweetened with a pinch of sugar cane and fruit juice, it’s what they call just a tad sweet. Ever since my first taste, I have been experimenting with other flavors and am really coming to enjoy all of their varieties of teas.
I have learned that tea is an acquired taste. For those of you that aren’t into it now, I suggest starting with a mild, sweet tea. No, I don’t mean taking tea and putting half a glass of sugar in it! My first sip of tea was green tea and I was not a fan at all. Now that I have eased my way into those stronger teas, I can say I enjoy green tea now!
Honest Tea is also very cool because they are on Facebook and Twitter. Who doesn’t like when their favorite brands play in the socialsphere?
