Tangerine Orange Zinger from Celestial Seasonings

Jaime drank Tangerine Orange Zinger by Celestial Seasonings

So I tried to make a tea soda out of this. I failed.

To make things better, I brewed up the last bags into a pot of hot tea. And am trying to come to terms with the fact that all I’m really capable of making tea-wise is a pot of hot neat tea, and iced sweet tea. The second of which I don’t even like and only make for my mother. My lattes are sad, and my other experiments just leave me empty inside.

Oh, well. I still love my tea hot and neat.

You failed at tea soda or the tea failed at tea soda?

I failed at tea soda. Let’s just say it wasn’t pretty.

If you tell me what you did maybe I can give you some pointers. I’ve done it a couple times and it’s turned out good.

Made a tea concentrate out of the bags…just enough hot water to cover them. Added that and some sweetener to carbonated water. Rolled bottle gently to mix.

Omit the sweetener? I’m kinda biased since I never use sweetener, but that’s the only difference in how I make mine. Sad. :(

I added the sweetener after the first taste unsweetened gagged me. Yup, sad.

Well at least you know what you did wrong.

Sad:( I’m sorry your tea experiment failed. I haven’t tried tea soda because anytime I add splenda to soda water I have a mess on my hands. Maybe honey would work?
