Mango undoubtedly is one of my favorite fruits. Nearly every flavored tea I’ve tried that is infused with mango has been excellent. Snapple’s mango flavored green tea is no exception. Plus I’m a big Jimmy Buffett fan, and his 1985 album “Last Mango in Paris” is a classic. Snapple does not boast organic ingredients in this product, but it does deliver a solid ready-to-drink (RTD) beverage that the average consumer is going to enjoy. I drink a lot of loose leaf tea, and I know the many health benefits of tea. I still like a ready-to-drink tea when I’m out on the go. Snapple’s mango green tea is loaded with sugar – about 15g per 8 fl oz. So, if that doesn’t fit in your diet – don’t buy this product. I like drinking Snapple with lunch on days that I’m feeling like something tasty and sweet is in order. Since I rarely drink sugary beverages, I feel I’m entitled to a sweet tea from time-to-time. Keep in mind, Snapple does offer many diet versions of their products.

The flavor of the tea is dominated by a deliciously sweet mango with a hint of green tea in every drink. I have to say this is probably my favorite Snapple product from this line of tea products. Green tea and tropical fruit compliment each other well when it is done right. I’ve tried many loose leaf teas that include mango – I enjoyed all of them. In the end, this product is very flavorful and could easily sway a “cola” drinker to become a tea drinker.
