Snapple - Blueberry Iced Tea


Yes. This is a fantastic, obvious and overdue addition to the Snapple family. The new Blueberry Iced Tea tastes exactly like what you'd expect it to. It's not too sweet but just sweet enough to give you that yummy kick that you love from fruity iced teas.

Also, I like that this is a Snapple product because it is nicely blended, pasteurized, homogenized, sodomized... whatever the hell they do to it to make sure it's just a cleanly produced, crisply blended, filtered and perfectly balanced beverage. You know, as opposed to those local, natural brands of drink that often have "__ Farms" in their name, and they taste like somebody dropped a handful of blueberries into a bottle of bitter iced tea, nothing is mixed up properly and there's a weird "dusty fruit nectar residue" coating the bottom of the bottle like that green scum that builds up on the surface of a stagnant New England pond.

I'm sure Snapple already has the trendy "antioxidant" follow-ups lined up in their queue and we'll be seeing the release of "Pomegranate Iced Tea" and "Acai Iced Tea" very soon. Regardless, this one is good and you should give it a try.
