enjoy Red Tea + Mate very much
By: Lin Faeth of Fresno. CA
I make my own bottles of tea to take with me (ie.: to work for lunch). I put one bag of Red/Mate Tea and one bag of Green Tea in each bottle and pour off-the-boil hot water over, let sit 'til a nice color, remove the bags, fill bottles with more hot water, put lids on, allow to cool, and then refrigerate - to grab and go, whenever!
I feel (hope!) I'm getting the best of all worlds with this combo of teas with no sweeteners or flavorings.
Many thanks!

One taste remembered for years
By: Christa of Worcester, MA
I first bought some Red Tea Mate back in 2002 and drank it all up quickly because it was so delicious! I went back to the store and BOO they were out! Ever since then I have looked for it in every health food store I've ever been in -- all disappointments. It is now 2011 and I'm going to buy it online instead of waiting any longer. Someone needs to seriously bump up the marketing for this delicious drink!

Red Tea Rooiboos - Wonderful!
By: BethO of Cave Creek AZ
This is one of my favorites, along with Chocolate Mate and Chai Spice Mate. I buy a bag of each, and mix the bags in a container on my counter top, so I have a variety. I drink at least one cup every morning, instead of or before coffee. I also keep a variety of bags at work for an afternoon pick me up. My workmates say my cabinet smells wonderful! FYI, I take advantage of the multi-bag discount as well as free shipping by buying 4 bags of bulk tea bags at a time, in a variety of flavors. This is enough tea to last me about a year.

Addicting
By: Anonymous of Dale City
As energizing and refreshing as ordinary mate, though the flavor and aroma seemed a bit pungent. I suppose it might simply have been because I am not accustomed to the flavor of red tea.

Best Red Tea Mix ever!
By: SS of Tampa, Fl
I love Rooibos, Honeybush, and Yerba Mate. I am happy that Guayaki makes the best red tea blend ever.
This tea gives you a warm sense of well being as well as extra energy that last throughout the day.
Why waste your time and money ordering the smaller pack? I purchased 2 1/2 pound bags and I know I will have to reorder again next month.

Let it steep
By: Tom Bellegante of Taylorville, IL.
This is a nice change from all your other good teas. My wife and I decided to try it since we like all your other teas. By the way, we have tried many teas from many other places. While we have found many good and some not so good, Guayaki is by far our favorite. Now exclusively. Red Tea Mate seems to benefit from a little longer steep time than we usually do.5 min. minimum and up to 10 min. We will be getting more.
