The green tea undertones act nicely to even out this cola. The cane sugar in place of HFCS is a noticable improvment eliminating "soda mouth" with this clean finish. I don't like the Steaz line too much, but the cola is one of the best in the line. I think they should stick to what they're good at, because they will turn people off to the brand with other low quality drinks mixed into the line. The Diet Steaz Green Tea Soda, on the other hand gets my rating of MINUS 3 stars as one of the worst.
