So I was at Walgreens and saw something next to the Arizona Iced Tea that caught my eye; something new and exciting was just waiting to be picked up. I Picked up the can, read the side, looked at the can again, and put it back down. "VidaTea".
A couple days went by and I kept wondering if that can would be delicious, so I bought it. Wow, that's it?
At first glance, it looks like an amazing drink. It's in one of those small cans associated with energy drinks, sans-serif text and promising statements like "ultra premium sparking tea" and "all natural" which just made it seem like the thing to have. It's funny that I'm in a a media studies class at school (where you learn how companies suck you into their product) and everything we've learned applies to this little can.
When I cracked open the Wild Berry Green Tea, it wasn't very good. I was expecting something a bit sweeter and more like actual tea. This was just sparkling water with some berry taste. I'd drink it again, though, it would just take some getting used to.
Next I bought the pomegranate Green Tea. The taste is so disgusting. Sour, unsweetened, and again just sparkling water. Maybe I just don't like pomegranate, but wow that was bad.
Finally I have the Desert Pear Green Tea. At first I didn't like it, but I kept drinking some and it's not bad. I'd rank it above the pomegranate.
If you're in your local drugstore and you see this stuff, stay clear of the pomegranate. I would only recommend trying wild berry or desert pear. It's overall not a horrible product, maybe I'm just used to things being sweetened with sugar instead of "organic blue agave". Read more about All Natural Vida Tea
