HONEST beverages review and ATLANTA-area giveaway

"Honest Tea creates and promotes delicious, truly healthy, organic beverages. We strive to grow with the same honesty we use to craft our products, with sustainability and great taste for all."

Honest Ade has less than 50 calories per serving and are USDA organic.  Also, the bottles are made with PET bottles so you don’t have to worry about leeching into your drinks.  All of the Honest Ades are caffeine free.

We tried out the all of the above flavors except the limeade.  Typically, when I drink juice, I have to water it down because it is so sweet and so strong.  That wasn’t the case with any of the Honest Ade flavors.  They were just the right amount of flavor and sweetness.  I only wish there was a way to have the lower calories, but for the Ades to have 100% juice (instead of 3-10% fruit juice).

Honest Kids drinks feature 100% vitamin C and they are lower in sugar than many other kids drinks.  Additionally, they are USDA organic using organic cane sugar to sweeten them instead of high fructose corn syrup.

We were also give then chance to try out several of the Honest Kids flavors.  The girls enjoyed them, and I enjoyed knowing that they were slammed full of sugar or too sweet.  I had one of each flavor too and they were just right.  Again, I wish they were 100% fruit juice and no sugar added.  Also, because the straws went in the middle of the top of the pouch (making it easy to insert), it seemed like the straws weren’t quite long enough to get to the bottom of the pouches, or you had to put your mouth on the pouch itself.  I’d like to see a little longer straw with the pouches.

Overall, we enjoyed all of the fruity flavors.

Win It: We’re doing this a little differently this time.  One lucky Really, Are You Serious? ATLANTA area reader will get 2 packs of Kids and one bottle of each of our Tea and Ade plastic varieties (which is 8 bottles in total).
