Despite the fact that I am a technically Southerner, I cannot stand drinking Sweet Tea. But lack of a Sweet Tea-tooth doesn't prevent me from appreciating a good iced Moroccan Mint tea on a hot summer day. For ages, Moroccans have enjoyed green tea, flavored with mint and sweetened with a hearty serving of sugar. Part ritual, part cuisine, friends who have lived in Morocco tell me that you can't get through the day without enjoying at least one pot of the anti-oxidant-packed libation. Honest Tea's version of the North African specialty is made with a touch of organic cane sugar. The slight sweetness cuts the bitterness of the green tea, while also enhancing the mint flavor. With roughly 1/4 of the caffeine in coffee and 1/6 of the calories in other bottled tea drinks, Honest Tea's Moroccan Mint is like visiting the Casbah without leaving your couch.

Ah, Honest Tea. An abiding passion. Moroccan Mint is quite refreshing, but my loyalty lies with Community Green. That little spark it gets from the Maltese orange I think.

If I could get off of drinking Arizona Diet Green Tea by the gallon, maybe I could try some of these more premium ones. Tough at $3 a gallon though.
