Green Tea Drinkers??????

ProPokerPlayer · Jun 19, 2011

Tried a bunch. Cant stand any of the ones made from artificial sweetners. they taste like shit. i was drinking Targets own brand which had no sweetners but sugar and apparently they have now quit carrying it... The only other brand i can find with sugar is called Peace Tea....its good but they only sell it by the can and i want gallons of the stuff.
So today im in Target and see this shit....SweetLeaf Green Tea. made with sugar so i grab 3 bottles. Should have read a little closer...its sweetened with sugar, honey and MINT! OMG this stuff is swill!!!!!!!!!!! Who in the hell wants to drink a tea that tastes like crest toothpaste?????...
Im screwed again....havent drank Coke in 3 months prolly, finally found something decent in this green tea and now i cant find a damn decent brand that isnt full of artificial gut eaters....Scum bag corporations dump the cheap shit in everything.....im sick of it!

Try 25 ml of apple cider vinegar or possibly balsamic vinegar to go for a grape flavor. Just enough to put some flavor in it.

lipton diet green teas are fantastic. No sweeteners or sugar of course. It's one of the only diet drinks I can stand, and I can more than stand it... it's 100x better than the sweetened stuff including Liptons sweetened, all of which I agree with you, taste like decroded crud

green tea has like half the caffeine of black tea, which has like half the caffeine of coffee. Why bother? If you really find water to be that disgusting, why not just brew your own and sweeten it yourself?

Exactly. I brew my own. It tastes better, and it's a lot cheaper.

Definitely brew your own - so much better - the sugar kind of cancels out the health benefits of the green tea anyways.

For those of you who brew your own - what brand do you use and how long will a batch keep?

I just got Luzianne brand. 1st batch aint bad. put the sugar in while its still hot. Stop off tomorrow and get some fresh honey and i hope im set.

AL i was thinking about making enough to fill my water cooler but it seems to indicate 48 hrs or so is about as long as you want to keep it. i could be reading it wrong though....
