Tazo Passion Herbal Infusion Tea, Caffeine Free, 20-count Tea Bags Review

Tazo's Passion Herbal Infusion is a somewhat tart, deep, flavorful (hibiscus-y tasting) tea. It is not berry-like in taste, although it is red in color. It's difficult to describe what hibiscus tastes like, but I find it a most pleasant taste. My husband says it tastes like pomegranate to him. Although Passion contains licorice root it is not sweet.
The ingredients in Passion are: hibiscus flowers, natural tropical flavors, citric acid, orange peel, licorice root, cinnamon bark, rose hips, lemongrass and red poppy. It is caffeine-free!
Tazo is an interesting company that makes only super premium teas. They are socially responsible, based in Portland, and have the motto, "The Reincarnation of Tea". Tazo is owned by Starbucks. Their web site is fun and quirky, with a Zen-type focus, definitely worth checking out. It is unclear, though, from their web site, how many of their ingredients are organic or kosher, and they do use some "natural flavors" in their teas--this wording seems a little vague for a super premium tea.
On the paper tea packet, Tazo writes, "A tantalizing deep red tea made from hibiscus flowers, exotic herbs and natural tropical flavors." On their web site, Tazo describes the flavor profile of Passion as "berry, juicy, wine-like, merlot, sweet, earthy, dense". Tazo describes the aroma as "sweet, juicy, red fruits".
I would rate this tea, and Tazo in general, as very good---better than premium teas like Stash or Celestial Seasonings---but not as good as other teas such as Numi, which is why Tazo Passion gets only four stars.

Sport Tea Cold 7.00 BAG (Pack of 12) Review

I drink 2 quarts of this a day, give or take, for almost 2 years now. I love iced teas, I love hot teas. I have never liked a tea as much as I do with Sportea.
I highly suggest the 7 bag version over the 20 bag version. I much prefer this cold, in fact I really don't like it hot at all. The little bags in the 20 count box just don't work out well for making cold tea in the right amounts.
I make 1 Nalgene bottle at a time, 1 tea bag and I fill it to the brim. This makes the perfect amount of tea for the bag. Put 2 bottles in the fridge at a time and I am all set. I let it sit between 4 (never less than 4 hours) and 16 hours. I rarely drink it if it brewed longer than 16 hours because it gets a funny bitter taste to it that I do not care for. At the 4 hour mark I think it hits it peak, and then mellows for a few hours and then begins to oversteap after 12-16 hours.
I always cold brew it. The hot brew accentuates the bitterness, which I must admit I have enjoyed on cold days, but I prefer the cold brew.
I buy this in bulk to save on shipping and I have to say that I have never had a bad bottle of tea yet. Of course some days I do not drink any, like on weekends generally, and some days I drink 3. But I always look forward to this stuff.
I cannot say that I have seen any scientifically verifiable side effects, but I know I feel better on days when I hydrate with Sportea than days when I do not. I know that I perk up in the morning about 1/2 way through a bottle, and keep that energy throughout the day usually. Of course there are so many other factors that play a part on a day to day basis, but if I had to say it I would say that I believe that it does what it says it does. It is energizing and refreshing and is a great substitute for plain boring water or carbonated beverages and it seems to give me a better morning than my coffee addled co-workers get. Plus there is no mood swing as with sugary drinks or caffine.
So is 2 quarts a day good for you, who knows, but it appears to be at least no worse than the alternatives. I am not suffering any side effects that I know of, though I have bought more from Amazon since I started drinking this stuff, and I have not suffered any medical conditions since I began drinking Sportea so I cannot say that there is any reason not to try it and see if it could be your soda replacement too.
