Pink Lemonade (Sip for the Cure) from The Republic of Tea
8

I bought a RTD plastic bottle of this at the grocery store.

Ugh.

It tastes like neither pink lemonade nor green tea.
It is unsweetened – who drinks unsweetened pink lemonade??
There’s a strange peppery/spicy aftertaste, which I guess is coming from the lemongrass (even though lemongrass is neither peppery nor spicy…)

WHY do so many food/bev companies think that lemon and lemongrass are interchangeable, and use lemongrass to impart the flavor of lemon ? As someone who loves lemons but rather dislikes lemongrass, I resent this practice.

I assume the actual teabags are better. Avoid the bottled tea!
