Reviews for Watermelon Mint Black Large Iced Tea Pouches

Just a little sweet tea!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I am a frequent purchaser of this product, usually in bulk. If you are a southerner (or not!) like me who does not care for “southern sweet tea”, but perhaps enjoys a little sweet flavor, this is the tea for you. This tea flavor has been my summer go-to for several years.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

This refreshing ice tea is our family favorite and is always along for the lakeside summer vacation. It is so easy to make with the perfect sized tea bag to make enough for everyone. We usually make it as a sun tea rather than boiling the water. Perfect on a hot day!

My Favorite Iced Tea for the Summer
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I love this tea! It delivers on both mint and watermelon flavors for those of us who prefer tea without added sugar. I grew up on Lipton Iced Tea, unsweetened because Memaw added sweet-n-low, which I did not like the taste of! Although I still enjoy Southern iced tea, it is typically entirely too sweet for me, so I mix the unsweetened with a little fruit juice. This was a convenient upgrade for me!

What a delightful surprise! Was a little hesitant smelling it in the bag. But after brewing, it was so good! Strong black tea with a background flavor of watermelon and very light mint. Watermelon is so hit and miss in drinks because it can be so artificial, but this was a hit! Not artificial at all. Will be getting a bag for the summer.

Hint of flavor

I like the idea of this tea - watermelon and mint - yum! But it was just a hint of flavor and I wanted more. I like the other mint teas from RoT and this one was more subtle. Adding a bit of sweetener helped bring out the flavors. It's definitely a summer tea that I enjoyed.

Did not like this tea
This shopper rated the product 1 out of 5 stars

I was so excited to get this tea today, only to be disappointed. I made it exactly like it says on the can. The watermelon flavor that is present is like the taste of watermelon when it’s gone bad. At least that’s what I think. I had my husband try it as well. He said the same thing without me prompting him. I also didn’t taste the mint. Maybe to me the watermelon flavor over powdered the mint. I’m glad some like it. Just not my cup of tea. LOL!

EH, not the best
This shopper rated the product 2 out of 5 stars

This one sounds so delicious, I love both watermelon and mint flavors in an iced tea, BUT somehow when you make this as directed with hot water the watermelon comes out tasting "over-ripe, and gone-bad", just spoiling the flavor profile enough to not want to drink it again. Nice try but missed on this one.

This is a perfect tea for summer. I drink it unsweetened and it is the perfect balance of mint and watermelon flavors even though I'm not a huge mint tea person. I could drink this all day.

My favorite summer iced tea
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I drink iced tea all spring, summer and early fall days. Living in the high desert southwest with mostly sunny and sometimes hot days I want something refreshing to drink and this tea, poured over a tall glass of ice, is a favorite. I make this tea as sun tea, with an added mint teabag or two, in a large glass canning jar. Friends I have served it to rave about it, so I show them the can the tea bags come in so they can purchase their own.

Tea for Texas...
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

It's hot nearly all year round in Texas so I was happy to try this tea. I combine one bag with two family size bags of regular cold-brew tea in a 3 quart pitcher and it's perfect. Can drink this year round. I't one of the most refreshing teas I've ever found. Next time, instead of the 8-bag canister, I'll be ordering the larger size.

Kids love it too
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

There was a guy handing out cups of this tea at our local store Wegmans in Ithaca New York. I tried it along with my cousin and we both looked at each other in amazement and I asked how much sugar he put in the tea and he said that there was absolutely no sugar. I was so shocked and amazed it is so good you don't need sugar. We just had to purchase a tin and I've been hooked ever since. I am making some sun tea by the gallon today 3 total.

Not quite what I expected

Not Quite
This shopper rated the product 2 out of 5 stars

Thought this would be an ideal iced tea so I wouldn't have to add sweetener. Wrong. It was initially OK going down but left me with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Tried adding some sweetener but it only helped a little. I believe it is the watermelon since I do brew both Spearmint and Peppermint Iced Tea without the problem.

I've been searching for a watermelon tea after drinking some at a restaurant a few years back. I haven't been able to find one that I liked until I came across this! The mint isn't too strong or distracting. The watermelon is a wonderful iced tea flavor. I add this to a regular black tea bag when I brew a quart pitcher of iced tea.

Perfect Summer Tea!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

This is SO good. I was concerned that the mint would overwhelm the watermelon, but that is absolutely not the case. It is a perfect blend of the two and you can taste sweet juicy watermelon and a lovely refreshing, but not overpowering mint, which is hard to accomplish with mint tea blends. This is hands down my favorite ROT iced tea. I've tried the coconut water blends and the sangria and they really can't compare - not that they're bad, but this tea is so much more exceptional. If you like watermelon and light mint, definitely get this!

To be honest, I don't usually care for watermelon-flavored things, so I wasn't expecting much from this tea. However, it is light, crisp, and refreshing, and has become the go-to beverage for my boyfriend and I. We brew a new 3 quart pitcher every other day all summer!

Refreshing iced tea with melon flavor
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I cold brewed this tea for about 14 hours, and it turned out delicious and refreshing. The taste and aroma of melon was strong, much to my delight. On the other hand, it produced very different reactions among my family members, some of whom thought that mint was the dominant flavor. But this is how it often is with tasting foods, so the varied reactions might not be a big surprise. It is a flavorful, refreshing tea that is worth trying at least once. I know I will be buying it again.

This is the first tea I bought from the Republic. It got good reviews, but it sounded like a strange combination so I wasn't sure what to expect. This tea is wonderful!

I, too, received this as a sample with a catalog. My first thought was that neither watermelon nor mint appealed to me, much less the combo of both.

The ultimate thirst-quencher!

Was worried I wasted my money, but the watermelon flavor is real, just enough, and the mint is not too much like I worried it would be. But a perfect balance; can taste first black tea, then watermelon and the mint is the finish. I used stevia to sweeten it and can't even taste the usually bitter aftertaste of the stevia! (I think the mint covers it) My new favorite!

I received this tea as a sample with the latest catalog from Republic of Tea. I was about to make a new pitcher of iced tea so decided to try this tea, even though I'm not at all fond of watermelon 'flavor' or having too much mint flavor in my teas. I was very happily surprised by the absolute perfection of this tea! The mint wasn't at all overpowering and the watermelon flavor was absolutely delicious and tasted like the real deal, rather than that sickening watermelon flavored candy. Good sample to send out, Republic. I will definitely be buying more of this one! My new favorite tea, already done drinking half a pitcher.

Bought this at Whole Foods in Boise. I can't resist a new product, especially now that the weather is getting warmer and this was for iced tea. Watermelon scented with a definite watermelon-y taste. I don't taste the mint up front, but it provides a nice, crisp finish to the sip. Not sure why a previous reviewer mentioned cardboard and rind. It's a perfect combination to me with a wonderful taste. Hits the spot when I want something sweet but don't want to eat sugar since it's great without any sweetener. Highly recommend - but wish like crazy that it was decaf. Will try the other flavors in the Iced Tea line next!
