Revolution White T
By: | Aug 5, 2006
Revolution White T is a bottled iced tea drink which contains no calories, no carbohydrates, no sugars, no sweeteners and no preservatives. White tea seems to be all the rage these days, especially with the aggressive marketing campaign of Snapple White Tea, but whereas Snapple has little to no tea flavor, Revolution White Tea tastes very strongly of tea. I tried the White T with Blackberry and I really couldn't identify any blackberry taste, maybe because the strong tea taste overpowered any other flavors. Remember, there are no sugars or sweeteners in this, so if you don't like the taste of cold unsweetened tea, I guarantee that you are not going to like this.
I LOVE tea. I was brought up in a home where we drink hot tea in the mornings and evenings, and to this day I still drink at least one cup of tea daily. I have been living in the South for the past 6 years, where iced tea is the most popular drink. But it seems that although I have been inundated with tea all my life, unfortuantely I do not have a sophisticated enough palate to appreciate unsweetened iced tea - because I couldn't even finish the bottle of Revolution T. BUT there are many people out there who love the cold, straight tea - no sugar taste - and for those people, this would be ideal.
Another reason that I probably will not be buying this again is the hefty price tag of $1.99 for a 10 ounce bottle. For that price, I can make my own. One thing I did love about Revolution White T was the bottle design. It is so sophisticated, especially when you put it up against the plastic bottles of Snapple or Diet Lipton Green Tea with Citrus which I also reviewed [check it out]. Unfortunately, that design alone is not enough to make me spend so much for a bottle of iced tea, white, green or black - especially when it is so easy and cheaper to make it myself.

I actually really really really don't like sugar in my tea. Wish they sold this at a more convenient place though. I'd like to try it. :(
i bought this stuff, took one sip, and poured it out. it tasted like water. just water. i can get water for free! i am from the south (tennessee), but i HATE iced tea (unless it is really fruity).
I have not tried Revolution White T, but they did a great job with the bottle design. It sure attracts attention.
I haven't tried it, but I have tried PomTea. I love PomWonderful, though it is too pricey to buy regularly, and PomTea is better. I've only tried the Black Tea version, but there is a Pom/Peach/Green Tea version too (I hate peach flavored things).
