I'm a fan of Sprite. I'm also a fan of tea. One thing that I'm not so sure about is combining those two drinks. If you haven't heard about it, that's actually a thing.

There is a New Drink Called Sprite+Tea

If you haven't been down the soft drink aisle of your local grocery store, you might not have seen a new bottled drink from the Coca-Cola Company called Sprite+Tea. I actually stumbled across it by chance. According to the Coca-Cola Company website, it's "Lemon-Lime and tea flavored soda with other natural flavors", and it's only here for a limited time. Also, even though it's a soda AND a tea product, you would expect it to have caffeine. However, it has no caffeine, following the tradition of Sprite.

Now, I will admit, it sounds weird to think about combining Sprite and tea into one drink. However, that weirdness was just enough to make me curious, so naturally I had to try it out.

My Sprite+Tea Review

I don't know what exactly I was expecting. I guess I had some expectation of this drink tasting like a flat Sprite, or a mixture of tea with sparkling water. After trying the Sprite+Tea, I must say, I was surprised - in a good way.

Honestly, the Sprite dominates the taste, with a hint of tea flavor. It's got a good flavor that I really like. After thinking that it would taste flat, this was a pleasant surprise.

So, at the end of the day, I'd say - based on my EXTENSIVE experience and knowledge...or lack thereof... - Sprite+Tea is a win.

Unfamiliar Blue Bell Flavors

I've been a fan of Blue Bell my whole life. However, I still get surprised by some of the flavors I find, especially since the variety can change from store to store. Here's a few of the different flavors that I found recently.
