I had never heard of Honest Tea until my friend, fellow RD, and future office mate, Kristie Finnan reviewed Honest Tea this summer. I walked into Giant the other day and found the tea on sale for a dollar. So, I picked up two flavors, Honey Green Tea and Half and Half. The Half and Half contains 100 calories per serving and 24 grams of sugar. Ingredients include water, organic cane sugar, organic tea, organic lemon juice, and organic lemon extract. The products contains no artificial colors or flavors. The Honey Green Tea contained 70 calories and 18 grams of sugar.
Recently I was drinking a lot of diet teas. Despite the zero calories, they are often full of artificial ingredients. I try to not consume anything that has ingredients I can not pronounce. Honest Tea tastes great and is great for you too!
