Tazo Plum Pomegranate Green Tea


Aroma : The sweet fruity smell of plum and pomegranate come first, followed by the familiar scent of green tea, which evanesces before you have a chance to enjoy the expected earthy aroma of green tea.

Taste : The sweet plum juice mixes with the mildly tart pomegranate and is followed by the unpresumptuous green tea, which vanishes in the tongue sapping tart of the pomegranate, leaving a faint sweet aftertaste of plum, but no tea.

Price : $1.39 at Good Earth. Available at stores nationwide.

Ingredients : An infusion of (water, green tea, and natural flavors), cane sugar, concentrated plum and pomegranate juices, natural flavors, and citric acid.

Other Comments : The same self-aggrandizement continues on this bottle as noted on the other Tazo sampling. One Thing Danithius neglected to mention, the website is very hip and pedantic, but a bit difficult to maneuver the first time around. And the second.

Overall : This is a pleasant juice blend, particularly for those fond of tart fruits like pomegranate, but it is supposed to be a juice/tea blend, and the barely recognizable hints of tea spoiled my opinion of this as such. Good as a juice, not so as a tea.

Rating : 3.5/5 stars.
