it’s time for a Steaz party!
I wasn’t able to show you the vast array of Steaz products in my quick vlog, but you can see them all over at the Steaz website. I’ve now taste tested a bunch of the product line and I’ve been really impressed with the flavors, especially since they are all tea based (something I was a bit skeptical of at first.)
Also I don’t generally allow my kids to have soda so when they get a fizzy drink it’s kind of a big deal. Let’s just say Steaz has been a big hit with my carbonation loving boyz. (which has a lot to do with the burping factor I’m aware.) 
And then there’s the fact that these guys are trying to do right by their farmers.
Seriously, after my brief but fascinating education on the whole fairtrade thing, I for one will be looking for that “certified fairtrade” logo on the products I buy from now on.
If you’d like to learn more about the concept of fairtrade you can read about it HERE.
Eric has a genuine passion for his company and it’s global mission. He’s the real deal.
Oh, and I did try the Steaz energy drink yesterday and found it to taste surprisingly good and it gave me a bit of an energy buzz without the big crash once it wore off. I’m thinking this could be a nice alternative to that afternoon latte ritual I’ve got going.
So there you have it. Steaz is good and good for you plain and simple.
And don’t forget! Just leave a comment at the bottom of this post and that will enter you into the drawing for the sample pack of Steaz iced teas plus a $10.00 Target gift card! Even if you just say “hi”!
Enjoy your weekend Super Mamas!
And I’ll see you Monday when I pick our giveaway winner!!

Sounds yummy….and I’ll admit — I don’t even know what fair trade is all about — but I will certainly read about it.
Like I need another reason to go to Target
Steaz is hitting the perfect time for me as I am getting all the CRAP food out of my house and trying to go more organic (without going totally nuts-o)
Have a great weekend
Hey Meredith,
Ha–I too, am all about re-heating my coffee, and frankly, I’m getting tired of it. This sounds like my answer, in all ways, Fair Trade included.
Thanks for making us more aware–and happy drinking!

Can’t wait to have my boys try this. Andrew is always testing me by asking for a Sprite (for breakfast and dinner, he does not discriminate).
We all need a little boost in the afternoon – hold the guilt. Sounds refreshing. Cheers!
maybe i should give this a try for a change. i realized a few minutes ago that all i’ve had to drink today is a venti coffe and a tall latte. not good for a 9 month preggo mama!! i can’t stand water these days so i’m avoiding it like the plague.
Ahh, Target may just be one of the all time greatest store! Couple that with Steaz, it’s jsut mindblowing!
hey I bought some of the steaze at whole foods today based on your recommendation. I got the blueberry/ pomegrante because you said you were going to try it and it as right in front of my face!
Hey there!

Technically it’s now Saturday, but I just got to this even though it is insanely late… does it still count?
Scary thing… I opened the microwave this morning and there was my coffee from the evening before! My kids just laugh.
Anyway, thanks for the info. about the new stuff.
Hope you are so very well!!

I will definitely try this product. I hope Targets nationwide have it. You make a great pitch queen. So nice to have an alternative for a “treat”.
LOVE all of your comments girls!
I’ve been told that Targets nationwide do indeed stock Steaz. You may also be able to find them in your regular grocery market as well.
I’m so glad that the give-away is a sampler of the iced teas…they are something you can definitely let your kid’s drink too.
Maxwell asked for a Steaz energy drink before his basketball game this morning and well, let’s just say I will not be giving my active boyz more of an energy boost anytime soon.
Maybe for finals week in high school.
Enjoy your weekends with your offspring if ya got em’!
See ya Monday:)
Sounds very yummy!! And healthy!!
I do hope they ship or sell overseas… The energy drinks would be great for my hard studying for the next 4 weeks!
Thanks for sharing Meredith!
Lots of love,
Véronique
I drink another green tea now that I really like but it’s not organic. I’m always looking for a healthier alternative. Off to Target I go!
Hi Crystal!
Oh, I hope you like it too! Let us know what you think:)
Hi, Meredith! Thanks for letting us know about Steaz! It sounds great and I like that it is healthy. Pop (as we say in the ‘burgh), is a big treat for our girls as well, so this will be a nice alternative. Thanks for sharing! As always, I love visiting your site. Miss you guys!
So glad I have a target near by and tea is my ONLY drug of choice in the morning. I will check it out tomorrow!! The blueberry one sounds great.
Hi Shannon!
So glad to see you here:) I hope you can get Steaz in the burgh. It should definitely be in your Whole Foods or Target. Hope you and your girls like it!
Give you crew a hug from all of us!!
