I Love Honest Tea!

A personal story in the experience: I Love Tea
 I LOVE TEA. I love it fresh brewed.  I love chamomile.  I love peppermint.  Pretty much any flavor, I am there.  Don't even get me started on Iced Tea, Sun Tea, and Sweet Tea... we will be here all day.  I could write epic poems... and probably will, just not right now.

I gotta focus... I have tried a lot of teas out there... but there is one that stands out.  Have you tried HONEST TEA?  I think I might be addicted. Maybe I'm just a sucker for tea, but this stuff rocks!  I am not necessarily all about organic and raw foods or anything like that.  I mean, I eat hotdogs and nachos when I am at the ball game, so what does that tell you.  But this company and product are something that I am PROUD to stand behind.  It's 100% natural.  It tastes great.  It is just slightly sweet — the way I like it (but you can also get it completely unsweetened, which I get for my wife).

But I did a little research as well and outside of making delicious flavors of tea, Honest Tea strives to be a "good, green company" and holds their business to a higher standard. Honest Tea emphasizes responsibility, authenticity, integrity and purity.... Something RARE in the business world today. 

The Honest Tea Mission Statement states it perfectly -- "Honest Tea creates and promotes delicious, truly healthy, organic beverages. We strive to grow with the same honesty we use to craft our products, with sustainability and great taste for all."

Is it cheesy to say they are TEA-rrific?  If so, I don't care.  I love me some HONEST TEA.

P.S. My favorite flavor is Black Forest Berry.  I don't know if its because of the real sugar cane or the mix of blueberries and raspberries, but whatever the case that's my flavor.  What's yours?

As a tea fanatic myself (haha yes! go tea!), I've heard of honest tea but never tried it. I guess a part of me is more dedicated to hot fresh-brewed tea....

But the way you talk about honest tea makes me want to try it!

Can I ask - is this an infomercial?
just the devil's advocate in me.
But - if I see some Honest Tea around I might now consider buying some. But because you buy some Honest Tea, does that make you a supporter of Honest Tea? I'm curious about this Honest Tea. I honestly think everyone should have a sip of Honest Tea!

Let's see... buy an ounce of a substance found only in Mother Nature, weed out the stems and seeds that you don't need....

MMmmmm.... drink a pint of tea a day.....

I have not tried any from that brand yet, but the next time I go to the store, I will look for it! Sounds wonderful.

I'm glad to know there's such a product out there because I hate when my tea lies to me! I'm gonna have to try some of that :)

Coming from a real tea fanatic... One thing I can't stand is the iced tea that comes out of the soda fountain. Nothing is worse than ordering an iced tea at a restaurant and going in for a big refreshing gulp and ending up so disappointed. I really love regular tea... just a tad sweet. I once had the experience I described and thought it was tea.. not soda fountain tea and so I added a dash of sweetner to it... disaster... it was like the worst syrupy substance I have ever encountered.

I do like Honest Tea... but only the flavors that are a tad sweet, because they are exactly that. The regular ones, unsweetened, are too bold for me. I am not that strong. ;) I really like the honey green tea... but I think that is because I am a sucker for anything that makes use of honey.
