Title: White Tea With Blueberry/Pommegranite
Post by: MidniteRambo on April 06, 2008, 08:30:22 AM
I just picked it up "Lipton White Teawith Blueberry & Pomegranite"

The ingredients include white tea, green tea, cinnamon bark, licorace root, ginger root, dried blackberry, currant, raspberry and blueberry pieces and pomegranite juice

It sounds like a great product from an anti-oxident perspective.  I'll report on the taste after I try it.

Hmmm, the tea leaves themselves are high in antioxidents but what you squeeze out of those leaves once you soak it in hot water is little to none.

That's what I would think too.
Taste wise sounds good though.

Take note that the package says "Blueberry & Pommegranite Flavor" Midnite, so it may not be as healthful as it seems.  With spring coming, maybe you can find some wild blueberries to pick.  High antioxidant, less filling, tastes great.

I thought the same as you did at first, but the ingredients list "pomegranite juice solids" and "dried raspberry fruit pieces"

So tea is not a good source of antioxidents? If true, that's too bad.
