BevNET Review: Raspberry was the final flavor that we sampled of the Steaz's can based lineup. Like the other flavors, it delivers a nicely balanced mixture of green tea and fruit flavor in a lightly carbonated format. It has a moderate level of sweetness, which should appeal to palates of all ages. Lastly, since this is their decaffeinated line, we'd suggest more prominent placement of the fact that the drink is decaffeinated (it's currently on the back in the "about" text). Still, this is a great tasting drink that delivers with good looking packaging as well.

I tried Steaz and think it tastes good. But I was curious: how did these hard working guys get sodas back into schools. The answer : with a little creativity - easy. The ingredients are organic so mom believe this is a good beverage for kids. Let's dig deeper. Here is a list of the ingredients: INGREDIENTS: Sparking Filtered Water, Organic Evaporated Cane Juice, Natural Raspberry Flavor, Citric Acid, Vegetable Juice for color, Sodium Citrate, Fair Trade Certified? Organic Decaffeinated Ceylon Green Tea, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), and Organic Acerola Juice Concentrate. What these hard working guys did was take the caffeine out of tea and make a sparkling beverage out of it. This is also known by the slang term soda. Then they added Vitamin C from both ascorbic acid and Acerola. It still has all of the sugar that we've come to know and love in soda - 35 grams in a can and a mere 135 calories - but with Vitamin C. This is an example of creativity and ingenuity. My son loves soda, so thank you Steaz. Nice job.Please keep the healthy beverages coming.
