We've come to the end of the journey for Peace tea. I'm not going to lie, I've been looking forward to this being over. When I picked up this multi-pack, I thought it had promise. What it in fact has is poorly designed tea made with no love that has been marketed to people who think that it might have something more to say than, " hello, I am Coca-Cola, and I want your money. "
Once again, the tea has been engineered to look like tea. It hasn't been engineered to look like particularly good tea, but the homogeneity of the tea is reflective of a very cookie cutter perspective when it comes to producing beverages. Say what you will about Coca-Cola, they produce a lot of beverages, and consistency is there byword. The aroma is blueberries, but it's much more sedate than the peach or the raspberry was in their respective teas. Does that mean this is going to be better? Probably not, but hope always exists.
First sip is, like the others, not terrible. That said, it's not particularly great. I like blueberries, and I have certainly enjoyed more than one blueberry beverage on this site, but the blueberry taste is kind of faded, and it might just be my imagination but I definitely taste the fake saccharine sweetness produced by the sucralose. The sip is already not going well, and I'm really not looking forward to doing a full swig, but I will.
Tip-in is blueberries, tea, sweetness, and strangely dry. I don't think any of the previous teas have had a sensation of being dry, but this one does. At least that makes it different. The middle is fairly easy to drink with the blueberries adding a nice texture to the overly sweet yet watery center. The finish is a miserable conclusion with fake sweetness and aftertaste.
