Description:

12 oz has 210 Calories.

Ingredients: Real Pomegranate, peach and other fruit juices combined with freshly brewed Tazo Green Tea, blended with Ice.

Tall has 4 points, so less good for dieting than the Tangerine Flavor, but the Pom and Green Tea are very very good for you. Both are powerful anti-oxidants, and green tea is purported to help reduce LDL

The Asian Paradox
I found this bit on the Wikipedia Green Tea Entry:

"In May 2006, researchers at Yale University School of Medicine weighed in on the issue with a review article that looked at more than 100 studies on the health benefits of green tea. They pointed to what they called an "Asian paradox," which refers to lower rates of heart disease and cancer in Asia despite high rates of cigarette smoking. They theorized that the 1.2 liters of green tea that is consumed by many Asians each day provides high levels of polyphenols and other antioxidants. These compounds may work in several ways to improve cardiovascular health, including preventing blood platelets from sticking together and improving cholesterol levels, said the researchers, whose study appeared in the May issue of the Journal of the American College of Surgeons. Specifically, green tea may prevent the oxidation of LDL cholesterol (the bad kind), which, in turn, can reduce the buildup of plaque in arteries, the researchers wrote."
