| Don't Rush to Get Limbaugh's Tea |
Under normal circumstances, you should probably avoid putting anything Rush Limbaugh related in your mouth.
But the conservative firebrand did recently release a Paul Revere-themed beverage,
Two If By Tea, so Clean Plate Charlie decided to risk life, limb, and sanity to review the
oxy-chaser summertime drink.
Before you say the review can't possibly be fair because
New Times is a liberal rag, as some media personalities and blog commentators on the right have surely claimed, know that Clean Plate Charlie went the extra step to make sure the writeup was apolitical and objective. ("Fair and balanced," as you people put it.)
To do that, seven
New Times staffers participated in a blind taste test of four sweet teas: Two If By Tea, AriZona, Publix, and Betty's Soul Food brands. Participating
New Timesers were given a slip of paper, where they wrote their political affiliation at the top, followed by their immediate impressions of each tea.
The results might shock you -- if you can find the time to put down your dog-eared (daresay, sticky-paged) copy of
The Federalist Papers, that is.
