The nice people at the POM blog asked if I’d be willing to review there Diet POM Tea. Being almost an exclusive water drinker, I appreciate the samples as I hardly every look down a beverage aisle.
So I’m drinking one right now and I’m really liking it. It has a nice light sweetness without the artificial sweetener aftertaste that a some diet drinks have. And so it shouldn’t, the only ingredients are white tea, Pomegranate juice, fructose, erythritol, Pomegranate Antioxidant extract, Blackberry juice, natural flavors and citric acid. I’m liking this trend of “diet” drinks not loaded with artificial sweeteners.
One bottle is two servings so I’ll provide the nutritional info per bottle. Coming in at 70 calories, no fat and fiber, of course, it’s 1 point a bottle. Not too shabby when you want something sweet and refreshing to drink!
I have to admit, I’ve been sipping on it while writing this and watching a movie (can you say multitastker) and it has prevented my night time sack fest by curing that craving for “something sweet”.
If you enjoyed this article, please consider sharing it!

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

Finally my first Farro idea! I have to say, I love this stuff! It's chewy and yummy and, well, fun! I tossed it with what I could find in my pantry and it made a wonderfully satisfying lunch. Filling but not heavy, tasty and quite nutrient dense. According to NutritionData.com this [...] -
I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...]

Pom coincidence — just blogged on eating pomegranate just now myself. One of LifeHacker’s top five weight loss foods. And that drink sounds yummy. I want one! :D
Check out Alexias last blog post..Yum, I love all five of these foods!
Hey Roni, love you site. Tea sounds yummy, but do you know if it’s decaf? I try not to have caffene very often since I’m very sensitive to it. It will keep me up at night even if I drink it in the early afternoon.
thanks, Dawn
I love teas! I’ve been drinking tea alot lately well instead of old sodas i think there are great benefits to drinking it. i love all new organic juices i’ve seen lately and I’m hooked on the Naked Juices
Check out mary beths last blog post..Bare Escentuals Giveaway
Dawn – The bottle says less then 1mg of caffeine per serving so it’s there but very low.
Roni, thanks for the post and I’m glad you enjoyed the tea. I’m even happier to see that you have a great following of like-minded people. We LOVE the work you have done and the message you are sending out, keep up the great work. Dawn, re: the caffeine, there is a small amount but not enough to really notice. I’m not a caffeine fan either and don’t even notice it in POM Tea…but that’s just me.
Cheers,
PB
I found this in the store the other day but it was 4.99 for a bottle. Yikes. I couldn’t justify buying it:(
Lisa – WOW! That’s CRAZY! That’s the problem with me getting samples, I forget to ask about price! Thanks for letting us know!
I just bought the orange blossom red tea one and its great! it was on sale for 2 for $5. Still expensive but a little bit better :) Maybe as it becomes more popular, they’ll lower the price.
Hi Roni,
Love reading your thoughts. I enjoy this too…but too much $$
These have always been too expensive, I would love to try it but at that price, Yikes!
Does POM help you lose weight? I really need to know. I’ve been wanting to try the Acai berry supplements, but they are so expensive they want over 70.00 dollars for ONE MONTH. Its totally retarded. Anyways please tell me if it does. Thanks, Kimberly.
Kimberly – POM juice is healthy for you but in my opinion, it does NOT help you lose weight. If anything I stayed away from all juices and beverages that were not water while losing (and still mostly do) those calories add up. If you drink anything but water now, then stop and switch to water. THAT will help you lose weight!
My 2 cents. :~)
