What do you love most about your flavor fave?

Did you know that we have a total of 11 flavors? As of today, Original, Mint & Honey, Peach, Raspberry, Citrus, Lemon, Half & Half (Lemonade Tea), Unsweet Lemon & Lime, Diet Original, Diet Citrus and a classic Lemonade to round it all out. I’m curious if anyone, outside of the tea’m here, has tried them all or if you tend to stick to your favorite one, two or three flavors? Drop me a line below and let me know. I know for some of you, it’s been a little difficult to find all the flavors. Well, we’re working on that. Hang tight!
We have a fun project that our Sweet Leaf Intern, Ty, is working on right now and I thought it would be fun for y’all to get in on the action. Ty is handy with the video camera and is working on a Flavor Series for us. Basically, he’s creating a sweet little video on each of our flavors that tells the story of that flavor or gives personality to it.
For instance, when you think of your favorite flavor what images or activities come to mind?
When I think of our Original, it reminds me of a backyard BBQ with my friends and family. Red and white table cloth, BBQ ribs, cole slaw, watermelon and lots of good sweet tea.
Mint & Honey, now that’s a different story. For me, it’s a trip back in time to my first Austin City Limits. Dust, crowds, sweaty hot, dancing, rockin’ out and keeping hydrated with that ice cold, minty fresh green tea. Just thinking about it is getting me PUMPED for this year which is the 10th anniversary!
So that’s a few of my memories, I have more for the other flavors, but I’d really like to hear from you about your memories or thoughts with your favorite flavor. Tell me a story below by next Monday (April 18th) and I’ll pick some of my faves to receive some special Sweet Leaf Tea goodies.
You might just inspire our next video!
My local CVS just started to stalk your Mint and Honey green tea and it is wonderful I am hoping that we see some more of your flavors in the coolers soon.
The Mint and Honey Tea is SO good..I must have it at least twice a week with lunch.
Half & Half (Lemonade Tea) reminds me of sitting in a field of bluebonnets on a beautiful spring afternoon in central Texas enjoying all of the goodness in nature.
The mint and honey flavor reminds me of a spearmint snowball from New Orleans
I love the Mint & Honey Tea, have it at least once a week….can’t wait to try all the other flavors that are available. Wish it was in more stores…haven’t seen it availabe anywhere but Potbelly’s.
OMG I love the Half & Half (Lemonade Tea)..Goes perfect with a huge rack of baby back ribs. Its the perfect combination. Like a perfect marriage.

I love the smoothness of mint/honey green tea. It instantly relaxes me, calms my tummy, and makes me happy. It is THE best!
I love Original, what with being from the South originally. Also the half n half is pretty darn good. Keep it up!!!
I love the mint/honey tea! I drink it daily and if someone has a stomachache it fixes it fast. My husband LOVES the original flavor and drinks about a gallon a week. He used to drink Arizona green tea till he discovered it had high fructose corn syrup in it. We love the simple ingredients and always tell our friends how great it is!!
When I drink Mint and Honey Sweet Leaf Tea I get this creative surge. I feel inspired by such a great taste from such good wholesome ingredients. It gets my mind going about what else to plant and where can I get fresher ingredients to whip up a good and healthy meal. I also feel craftier. I start sketching new ideas for projects and get pumped about getting things done. Mint and Honey gives me energy, feeds my brain, and refreshes my thirst. I have this delicious drink in my fridge at all times.
I can’t live without loads of Diet Original in my fridge. It has such a unique taste and I don’t have to worry about the calories. You can’t even tell it’s diet!
The raspberry tea is a personal favorite! My taste buds (and the ingredients list) tell me that this is all natural and therefore, delicious. Thank you SweetLeaf!
My favorite is the Lemon & Lime. I don’t drink sweet tea, so this one was made for me.
My favorite flavor is the Lemon and Lime Unsweetened Tea because not only is it crisp and refreshing… It’s also good for my waistline.
It was the hottest day in the hottest summer I could remember. I was on vacation in Chicago, taking in Lollapalooza – Grant Park felt like a desert! I sat in a small square of shade against a fence, melting, taking in the amazing Chicago skyline, the booming, echoing music, dancing through the haze…
I took a sip of my first ever Mint and Honey, and literally went “AHHHH….”. It was the greatest thing I had ever tasted! I took a picture of the bottle, sitting in the grass, the frenzy of the concert in the background. The picture is on my living room wall, and always makes me smile..and wish I had a Sweet Leaf Tea!
My fav for now is peach reminds me of country home cooked meals with family and the relatives
I love your Mint & Honey Tea! It is a great refreshment to drink while I am on the road.
I love the Mint and Honey. It tastes so clean and refreshing. Last week I bought a bottle at the store while shopping, but then accidentally left it in the car when I took the groceries in. It was a hectic evening, so I didn’t notice. The next morning I was tired and grumpy, but when I slogged my way out to the car to go to work, there was a bottle of Mint and Honey sitting happily in the passenger seat waiting for me, perfectly chilled from the night air. Morning saved! It was as if it had jumped out of the bag on purpose and hidden in the car just to surprise me the next day when I needed it. I drank it on the way to work, and when I got there I was happy, alert, and ready to get started on my day.
Raspberry Sweet Leaf holds a gentle place in my heart. Every time I go home I make sure to stock up a couple of weeks worth. I can’t explain the frown I get on my face if the store is out of stock, and I can’t explain the smile I get when they have this particular flavor on the shelves (I have cleaned them out on numerous occasions). This tea takes me to a warm place, I drink it to cure my woes, or heighten my happiness, it is one of my sweet pleasures in life. Thank you.
Bought the mix pack at BJ’s for the first time, I love the original, but to my surprise the citrus and raspberry where yummy too!! It reminded me of my travel to Texas and being hot from playing disc golf, and being refresh with a cool drink! Thanks, keep up the great work!!!
I first had the Mint & Honey at Lollapalooza and couldn’t get enough of it. I recently found a grocery store in my area that sells the half gallon bottles and I’ve given up soda and now just drink Mint & Honey tea
After a long day of teaching middle school students, nothing tastes better than a Sweet Leaf Raspberry Tea, left in a cooler, in the car, and sipped all the way home. Sometimes, just sometimes, it’s the best part of my day.
I love all of the flavors, but my favorite is definitely Mint and Honey. It reminds me of relaxing summer days with friends, sitting back at the beach or at a backyard party. Definitely a good source of nourishment after an intense game of volleyball or a pick-up soccer game! Its a wonderful flavor and so refreshing, perfect for a hot summer day.
Mint and Honey is also great because it tastes great either refrigerated or straight out of the pantry (which means I can start drinking them right when i’m home from the grocery store!) Keep doing what you’re doing, Sweet Leaf is the absolute best.
My favorite is mint & honey. It’s one thing that really relaxes me. After a long day I heat up a glass (it is so good warm,) & find a comfy chair with my puppy & crochet or read. I love that the tea is simple & good, just how I like things to be.
Mint & Honey is the most refreshing drink I can ask for. I have to stock up when I find it on sale! I think during the HOT Texas summer, I will be drinking even more!
I like the sweet tea and citrus green tea. I would love to try the lemonade but HEB, KROGER, WALMART around us does not carry it.
Mint and Honey is my absolutely favorite flavor! It makes my tastebuds tingle
I LOVE the Mint & Honey Green Tea. I have terrible allergies and when my throat is sore, it’s the only thing that soothes it. It’s pure soothing refreshment in a bottle. My family thinks i keep it stocked just for when i don’t feel well. Don’t tell them, but i drink it all the time. ;o)
LOVE the Sweat Leaf Peach Tea. Reminds me of sitting on my grandparents’ porch in the early summer afternoons rocking and chatting away with the wisest people I know. I also love the grannyisms on the glass bottle caps!
Raspberry is my favorite. I love the slight fruitiness mixed in with the sweet. It reminds me of the hikes I took on the Austin trails with my dog, packing plenty Sweet Leaf for when we reached a good observation point, and just relaxing and enjoying the view. Nothing better than some cold tea on a hot day. So ready to get back out there when I have more time.
Mint and honey green tea is my absolute fave!! It reminds me of the sun tea my mom used to make…she would pick fresh mint leaves from the backyard to put in the tea while it was brewing. It greatly saddens me that my local walmart has stopped carrying the 64 oz. bottles of sweet leaf!!
After a hard day of school, I like to go home, grab a cold, Sweet Leaf Lemon Iced Tea. It’s the perfect ending to a long day.
