I occasionally get this in the “shaken iced tea” version with one pump of sweetener and extra ice from Starbucks in the afternoon. (I have to be VERY specific or they mess it up!)
I have no idea how they prepare the tea as by the time I see them make the drink the “tea” is in a concentrate they pour in with water and ice. I have no idea if they make this concentrate in-store or if it comes in a jug they decant to make it look fancy. Anyone know how this is made?
This has a STRONG sweet-tart flavor profile. I get a little bit of cinnamon at the end of each sip. The sweet-tart overpowers all the other flavors and I really can’t single out any fruit. I like this tea for ease of access at any Starbucks on a hot day. For that, it hits the spot.
In terms of buying this tea loose or bagged, I don’t think it would make my shopping list. Anyone else drink this beverage from starbucks?

I tried it and couldn’t stand it! Way too tart even with added sweetener. I did get the cinnamon from it too!
It was just weird IMO, maybe a little metallic/fake too. And I love Teavana so I really wanted to like it.

Ditto!
I MADE THIS so MUCH better by doing 1/2 passion tango and 1/2 green tea iced, extra ice, one pump sweetener. If you are at Starbucks and want iced tea I HIGHLY recommend asking for that (complicated, fussy but GOOD!) beverage!
