Try My T, a ready to serve ice tea with a unique
blend, has been causing quite a stir at local festivals.
The lightly
sweetened with agave, mint-infused gourmet tea has amassed an impressive
following ever since the product launched in 2014.
Owned by Dawn
Patton and her family, Try My T was
initially a family drink served occasionally to friends. It was such a hit that
the friends encouraged the family to put the tea on the market. It got its name
because the family kept asking friends to “try my tea.”
While it is currently not available in
pre-packaged form, Try My T is
available at several upcoming festivals including the Palo Alto Festival of
Arts (Aug. 27-28), Fiesta Hermosa (Sept 5-6) and the Richmond Street Fair
(Sept. 24). It was also popular with
attendees at last weekend’s Long Beach BBQ Festival.
A festival
favorite, Try My T, which tastes best
when served ice cold, is not a sweet
tea. It’s been described as an “experience tea.”
According to
Patton, whose family was given the recipe by a friend, people can’t get enough
of the brew.
“We refer to it
as an ‘experience tea’ because that’s what people tell us they are having when
they drink it,” said Patton, a former broadcast journalist and investigative
reporter. “It’s a secret recipe. It doesn’t taste like anything they’ve ever
tasted before. That’s what makes it unique.”
