I saw that commercial the other day. According to Snapple, the ingredients are as follows:
"Our Real Tea Starts with the Finest Tea Leaves and is Made from: Filtered Water, Sugar, Natural Flavors, Citric Acid, White Tea, Vitamin C."
Is it still tea if it contains more sugar than tea?
Further, most greens will tell you to brew 1 teaspoon of leaf to 8oz of water. In this case, 16 oz necessitates 2 teaspoons of leaf...appx 9.5 grams. There are 16 grams of sugar in this bad boy. Less than other Snapple drinks but still way too much for my tastes.
To each their own, but I'll stick to unsweetened tea. Just my personal preference. Ideas will vary. ^_^
