 | "As seems the case with most of these RTDs, I think that the major contribution to the flavor profile of the white tea is that it makes the pomegranate and other juices taste less intense and more light.

"Extracted from California-grown Wonderful variety pomegranates, POMx has more antioxidant potency than red wine, green tea, grape and acai extracts. In fact, 15 published scientific studies on POMx have documented its antioxidant superiority as well as its promising health benefits." ---POM Wonderful website.I am very excited to sample another one of the Light POMx tea blends. It is nice to have a ready-to-drink (RTD) beverage available that does not have a lot of sugar content and calories. I have been working hard to consume calories through food rather than drink them and the 16 oz bottle that I am sampling contains 70 calories and 18 grams of sugar. Plus, pomegranate juice and tea are both healthy habits in general.
This blend is basically a union of White tea, POM's pomegranate juice, blackberry juice, natural flavors and citric acid. It also contains POM's patent pending antioxidant extract. The flavor profile is definitely of dark berries with pomegranate juice. The pomegranate juice is a little less sharp than in some of the POMx blends. The taste is mildly sweet and there is a bit of aftertaste that I am thinking that might be from some Erythritol that is in POM's pomegranate juice. It is mild though and only offers a very minor detraction from my enjoyment of the drink. The white tea is mild and barely noticeable. As seems the case with most of these RTDs, I think that the major contribution to the flavor profile of the white tea is that it makes the pomegranate and other juices taste less intense and more light.
Overall, I enjoyed this blend very much and will definitely purchase some of this at the grocery store. I think that the POMx Light Hibiscus Green Tea was my favorite of the two Light blends, but this one is also tasty. It went down fast and easy. I am thirsty and find myself wishing I had another bottle of this.
