SMITH’S Introduces New Flavors, Sizes Of Ready-To-Drink Tea

ORRVILLE, Ohio—SMITH’S is ready for warm-weather fun with the introduction of two new ready-to-drink teas, 50/50 Tea Lemonade (half tea and half lemonade) and Diet Tea with Lemon. SMITH’S is also offering its popular Peach Tea, with the flavor of perfectly ripened peaches, in a new convenient size. All three teas are now available in half-gallon bottles in retail grocery and convenience stores throughout Ohio.

“With tea consumption nearly doubling over the past decade, we’re excited to expand our offerings to include two new flavors that are sure to be a hit,” said Penny Baker, Director of Marketing for SMITH’S. “The 50/50 Tea Lemonade is a refreshing and delicious blend, while Diet Tea is smooth with a subtle hint of lemon.”

Despite the economic downturn, consumers continue to purchase naturally healthy beverages, especially tea. The addition of these new offerings will round out the SMITH’S tea product line, which also includes Southern Style Sweet Tea, and Tea with Lemon.

Suggested retail price (SRP) for SMITH’S ready-to-drink teas ranges from $1.99 to $2.29. SMITH’S brand products are manufactured by Smith Dairy Products Company, the leading regional maker of dairy products, beverages and ice cream.
