Sweet TeaProductReview Disclosure

That statement could not be more true, in fact I love my tea super sweet! I found out that June was National Iced Tea Month and you better believe that I celebrated it all month-long.  Thanks to the wonderful people at Salada and Red Rose Tea I had plenty of choices to choose from to make my sweet tea.

Red Rose Tea

Iced tea is one of the best inventions ever and these flavors have been the perfect refresher for the summer. Not that hot tea is  a bad thing. I was very surprised to learn that the Red Rose tea is the brand I already buy. I didn’t know it because I don’t pay that much attention I just get the most cost-effective one and this happens to be it. As you can see from the pictures we are actually getting ready to have a tea party.

Salada Tea

Salada sent me flavors of Green Tea! I admit that I have never really been one for flavors but these were great. First Green Tea is a much lighter tea than the black or orange. When you add flavors like Peach Nectarine and Raspberry your taste buds just come alive. My favorite was the Citrus Grove. It was bursting with flavor and just made me feel good.

  1. Oh, yum! I would love to try the Lemon Tea cookies. One of my favorite things to do is find interesting recipes to bake. This one looks definitely doable. And they would go great with the Salada’s Boston Ice Tea. Perfect for a hot summer day.

    Some spammers leave 1,000 word comments.

    • Cheryl, I know that they do but Google and my spam picks up on them right away. Google came down hard on me and other bloggers for so many 1 sentence comments on giveaways. They are cracking down on reviews, giveaways, and more.

  16. I’d love to try the Classic Vegetable Soup with Green Tea and the Perfect Green Tea Smoothie recipes. I’ve never thought of using green tea in those ways and I love trying new things.

  18. The Perfect Green Tea Smoothies sounds like it would be so refreshing – especially on a hot summer day. We have the fair going on now – think I will suggest we get the ingredients to make this for when we go later in the week – will be a nice treat to come home to

  20. We love juicing and smoothies at our house, so the Perfect Green Tea Smoothies recipe is my pick! 🙂
