Leelanau Bottling Company’s Cherry Unsweet Tea

Bottoms Up
May 27, 2023

Leelanau Bottling Company out of Suttons Bay is bringing Michigan-made cherry drinks to the beverage aisle sans alcohol and sans icky ingredients. We found ourselves looking for something refreshing on a warm spring evening, and their Cherry Unsweet Tea hit the spot and then some. This beauty has only two ingredients, but it’s packed with flavor. Black tea leaves are brewed with tart cherry concentrate…and that’s it. Short and sweet and with no added sugars. (So we finished our first bottle and then had another!) The company also offers other flavors, like Cherry Limeade, Cherry Lemonade, Cherry Half & Half (aka a cherry Arnold Palmer made with lemonade and iced tea), and a cane-sugar sweetened version of the cherry tea. We found ours at the Mountain Market at Crystal Mountain, and you can snag a bottle from a location near you using Leelanau Bottling Company’s handy “Find Us!” tool: drinkleelanau.com/pages/find-us.
