Good Earth Tea Giveaway
Winners and Results
(Giveaway Deadline was 3 pm CST, June 14)
Congratulations to these 6 Giveway winners (they were chosen from 31 entries via a random number generator). Each will receive a free box of Good Earth Original Sweet & Spicy Tea from me. Here are the winners and their comments about their favorite summer tea or cold beverage:
- Kathleen - I love tea, especially raspberry tea. Would love to try this tea. I plan on using your recipes for the multitude of teas in your last post!
- Christel - I like very cold ice tea with a slice of lime! If I can't get that, raspberry tea is a great alternative.
- Shreela - Celestial Seasonings Fruit Sampler is what I always buy. I use one fruit tea bag along with one family-sized Luzianne, with 1/2 tsp Truvia. I also enjoy hibiscus tea, but it's so sour I have to sweeten a lot more than my normal teas, including some real sugar to offset the Truvia taste from using so much of it LOL.
- Carmen - I love just plain black sun tea. No sugar, please.
- Kelly - Homemade lemonade is my fav :)
- Melissa - Fresh strawberry lemonade is my favorite in the summer!
Please email me your addresses ASAP (monica@theyummylife.com), so I can get your tea in the mail. (I need to hear from you within 48 hours; otherwise, another winner will be selected.)
THANKS to all my yummy readers who entered the contest, left comments, and shared the Giveaway on Facebook, Twitter, and Stumpleupon!
