Drinking a lot of water throughout the day is my goal to stay healthy. Every once in a while, I love a nice cold bottle of sweet tea. One of my favorite tea of all time has to be Lipton’s PureLeaf Extra Sweet tea. About 6 months ago, I had my tonsils removed and every since the procedure, it seems that I have lost some of my tasting. Anything sweet now tastes extra sweet to me. On my “Organica Adventure”, I have been expecting to find a great organic tea thats a good fit for my “new taste buds”. So I was on a country road back home and I stopped to grab some subway. I went to the coolers to grab me a drink and I notice the Sweet Leaf Organics Teas. I spotted 3 flavors but I decided to go with the regular one for starters. Priced at $2.99, it wasn’t much more than any other premium bottled tea.
ORGANIC SUGAR CANE
Many products claim to be all natural or claim to use raw sweeteners, despite the heavy processing involved in their production. Raw sugar cane stands as a perfect example; most producers take processed white sugar and add a tad of molasses for color! On the other hand, Pure Organic cane sugar is different. Producers take juice from organically-grown sugar cane and simply dehydrate it. As a result, sugar crystals are form, rich in minerals, trace elements, and vitamins. Organic whole cane sugar makes a perfect substitute for processed white sugar.
TEA CULTURE
Tea culture in China differs from that of Europe, Britain or Japan in such things as preparation methods, tasting methods and the occasions for which it is consumed. Even now, in both casual and formal Chinese occasions, tea is consumed regularly. In addition to being a drink, Chinese tea is used in traditional Chinese medicine and in Chinese cuisine. In Chinese society, the younger generation always shows its respect to the older generation by offering a cup of tea. Inviting and paying for their elders to go to restaurants for tea is a traditional activity on holidays. In the past, people of lower rank served tea to higher ranking people. Today, as Chinese society becomes more liberal, sometimes at home parents may pour a cup of tea for their children, or a boss may even pour tea for subordinates at restaurants. The lower ranking person should not expect the higher rank person to serve him or her tea in formal occasions, however.

CONCLUSION
Usually the case is that a tea is either too sweet or not sweet enough; this organic tea was evenly sweetened. I appreciated the pure flavor of the tea as it reminded me much a glass of fresh brewed. Of course no bottled tea could ever completely compare to freshly brewed tea, however, this organic tea is superior for tea in a bottle. The fact that this tea is certified organic makes it so much better. I will definitely recommend this tea to any tea lover. I will update this review as I taste the other flavors.If you are an online shopper or already a fan of this tea then check out the savings over at amazon.
