KarenOH Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Have had a request for Sweet Tea. My customer was given a Sweet Tea candle as a gift and now wants me to make them for her. The description on the candle company website says...tea, citrus and honey.I have checked my normal suppliers...KY, ME, JS, CS and NG...with no luck.I can try to mix it myself..but am kind of hoping that's a last resort! LOLThanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorelei Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 DS has Southern Ice Tea. Sounds perfect for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedar_lea Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I just ordered a iced tea scent from NG. It should arrive next week. I'll post back when I know if it's sweet or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I love and use Elements Red Tea. Smells just like the fresh brewed sweet iced tea I make for myself. No citrus notes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara AL Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I heard Lone Start has a good Ice Tea.Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenOH Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 Thanks everyone!! I appreciate the help!!Cedar_Lea...I'm very interested to hear what you think of NG's Iced Tea since they are one of my regular suppliers.Looks like I need to check out DS, Lonestar and Elements!! Thanks again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camay Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 WSP has Ice Tea Twist - a blend of orange, lemon, tea leaves and sugarBut it is $37/pound!!!! It gets good ratings, but then at that price, it better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenOH Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 Camay...I did see that! I thought it had to be a typo!! LOL It sounds exactly like what my customer is looking for too but no way would I ever pay that kind of money for an oil. In my opinion...that's crazy!!! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedar_lea Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I love and use Elements Red Tea. Smells just like the fresh brewed sweet iced tea I make for myself. No citrus notes.Really? I hated AHRE Rooibas so much I hadn't even bothered looking into another. Thank you for this info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camay Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Really? I hated AHRE Rooibas so much I hadn't even bothered looking into another. Thank you for this info!I use and love Flickers Red Tea, but I don't think it smells anything like sweet iced tea. Different noses! And maybe we make different iced tea, too.Red Tea description: Fresh fruity floral with top notes of orange, lemon, lime, apple, raspberry red tea and leafy greens. The spicy floral heart notes are blends of rose, jasmine, muguet and neroli with a base of pine, musk and vanillaToo bad it is on clearance. It's one of my all-time faves.

RWV Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 LS is the one I currently use--it has sweet notes, but I don't detect much, if any, citrus. There are some underlying floral notes but they're not overpowering in any way--just a nice balanced fragrance.I heard Lone Start has a good Ice Tea.Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okieScents Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I smelled and bought Iced Tea from LS yesterday. It is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedar_lea Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 The tea I ordered from NG is Boston Tea Party & it's not quite what you're looking for. I'm really happy with it. It's like a black tea with honey and lemon. No floral notes & sweet and citrus, but not really like iced tea is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenOH Posted July 3, 2011 Author Share Posted July 3, 2011 Thanks for all the replies and great suggestions!!Miami-Erie has just added a line of tea's so I am going to try a couple of their blends..if they aren't what she is looking for then I'll try Lonestar and Nature's Garden!!!Thanks again and everyone have a wonderful weekend!!Karen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
