My taste buds are on overdrive, and we’re in 4th gear. Driving towards the homestretch I take another gulp. Succulent and surprisingly tart, I just may need another cup. This new healthy beverage has got me hook
ed. I’m talking about Tetley Tea Infusions.
If you’re tired of drinking just water, and aren’t a fan of artificial sweeteners….this product is for you. Tetley tea infusions are concentrates of brewed teas, fruit juices and cane sugar. Sold in single serving sizes, this tea is the perfect choice for any healthy lifestyle. With several flavors to choose from these teas infusions contain no sweeteners, preservatives, flavors or colors. Sounds fantastic, but how do they taste?
This week I sampled the white tea+ cherry + orange blossom flavor. I followed the directions correctly by adding 1 packet to 500 ml of filtered water, and then mixed well. Success, this drink is fantastic but perhaps a little too sweet. Check out some lovely free Tetley tea recipes here.
One thing I didn’t like about this product is the nutritional label. Although this product is sold in liquid packets, the serving size states ½ packet or 15 ml. So really you must multiply by 2 if you’re drinking it according to the directions. Pretty sneaky with 100 calories per serving on average.
Prior to trying this product, I enjoyed my own version of infused tea. Here’s my recipe
1. Brew 2 of your favorite tea bags in 4 cups water.
2. Let it brew for 1 hour.
3. Pour tea into a glass container, fill with filtered water.
4. Sweeten if desired ( coconut sap, cane sugar, setvia, honey )
5. Place fresh lemon/lime/orange on top or fresh mint
6. Serve in a glass with plenty of ice and enjoy.
**I like to sweeten my homemade iced-tea with
coconut sap.
I’m giving this new product 3 stars,
