Snapple has been quenching our thirst since 1972 with its iconic glass bottles and fruity flavors.
From tropical concoctions to tea-based classics, there’s a Snapple for every taste bud. Let’s settle the ultimate beverage debate by ranking 20 Snapple flavors from the forgettable sips to the absolutely legendary must-haves.
1. Diet Peach Tea
Artificial sweeteners hijack what should be a peachy paradise. The chemistry lab aftertaste lingers long after your last sip, making you question your life choices.
The peach flavor seems lost in translation – more like a ghost of fruit than the real deal. Even die-hard Snapple fans typically leave this one on the shelf.
2. Strawberry Kiwi Diet Tea
Strawberry and kiwi should be a match made in heaven. Instead, this diet version delivers a watery disappointment with chemical undertones that overshadow any fruit essence.
One sip and you’ll wonder where the strawberry went. The kiwi? Completely MIA.
3. Diet Lemon Tea
Lemon tea should brighten your day, not make you wince! The artificial sweetener creates a bizarre metallic tang that fights with the lemon for dominance.
Neither wins. Your taste buds lose.
4. Grapeade
Purple medicine flashbacks, anyone? Grapeade misses the mark by leaning too heavily into artificial grape territory.
Sweet to the point of teeth-chattering, it overwhelms with candy-like intensity. The grape flavor feels more lab-created than vineyard-inspired.
5. Cranberry Raspberry
Identity crisis in a bottle! Can’t decide if it wants to be tart cranberry or sweet raspberry, so it becomes a muddled middle-ground that satisfies neither craving.
The raspberry feels like an afterthought – a whisper beneath the cranberry’s shout. Not terrible, but forgettable1
6. Fruit Punch
Childhood nostalgia in liquid form! Unfortunately, this fruit punch tastes like it was designed by a committee of kindergartners hopped up on sugar.
Too sweet and mysteriously lacking in any identifiable fruit flavor. What fruits are even in here? Nobody knows!
7. Orange Mango
Tropical vacation vibes that never quite reach their destination. The orange overpowers its mango companion.
Not bad on a hot day, but the artificial aftertaste creeps in uninvited. You’ll drink it if it’s there, but you won’t cross town searching for it.
8. Lemonade
Summer in a bottle? Almost.
Snapple’s Lemonade lacks the homemade charm of fresh-squeezed goodness, settling for a middle-of-the-road tartness that neither offends nor impresses. The sweetness hits first, followed by a lemon kick that feels more like a gentle tap.
9. Peach Tea
Georgia peaches wouldn’t recognize this distant cousin. The tea base provides a solid foundation, but the peach flavor whispers rather than sings-
Still, there’s something comforting about its subtle sweetness. On a scorching summer day, you could do worse than this peachy companion.
10. Pink Lemonade
Nobody knows why pink lemonade exists, but Snapple’s version embraces the mystery with a slightly berry-tinged twist on the classic.
What makes it pink? Who cares! The tartness hits different here – smoother and more approachable than regular lemonade.
11. Raspberry Tea
Berry meets brew in this surprisingly sophisticated offering. The raspberry doesn’t punch you in the face – it’s more of a gentle tap on the shoulder, offering a subtle fruity dimension to the tea base.
Balance is the key here. Neither too sweet nor too tannic, it walks the middle path with confidence.
12. Diet Raspberry Tea
Plot twist! A diet Snapple that doesn’t taste like disappointment. Somehow the artificial sweeteners complement rather than compete with the raspberry notes.
The berry flavor takes center stage while the tea provides a solid supporting role. A rare diet drink that stands on its own merits.
13. Strawberry Pineapple
Tropical surprise in every sip! The strawberry and pineapple play tag team on your taste buds – first the familiar berry sweetness, then a tangy pineapple finish that keeps things interesting.
It manages to capture both fruits authentically. The strawberry prevents the pineapple from becoming too acidic.
14. Kiwi Strawberry
Cult classic alert! Kiwi Strawberry has earned its devoted following by perfectly balancing sweet strawberry with tangy kiwi in a flavor marriage that just works.
The exotic kiwi notes elevate what could be an ordinary strawberry drink into something special. Green meets red in this flavor power couple that’s been turning heads since the 90s.
15. Mango Madness
Tropical vacation without the airfare! Mango Madness delivers exactly what it promises – an intense, almost excessive mango experience that transports you straight to a beachside hammock.
The flavor isn’t subtle – it’s bold, sweet, and unapologetically mango-forward. Close your eyes and you can almost hear the ocean.
16. Fruit Punch Tea
Identity confusion never tasted so good! This bizarre hybrid shouldn’t work – but somehow it creates flavor magic.
The tea tames the punch’s wild sweetness while the fruit adds depth to the brew. It’s the mullet of Snapple flavors – business up front, party in the back – and we’re here for this unexpected masterpiece.
17. Lemon Tea
Classic for a reason! Snapple’s Lemon Tea achieves that perfect balance between tangy citrus and smooth tea that’s been converting coffee drinkers since day one.
Neither too sweet nor too tart, it’s the Goldilocks of the Snapple lineup. The lemon brightens the tea without overwhelming it. Timeless refreshment!
18. Apple
Simplicity at its finest! Snapple Apple delivers pure, crisp apple flavor that makes you question why you’d ever bother with more complicated drinks.
Something magical happens when apple juice gets the Snapple treatment – it becomes clearer, brighter, more essential. No fancy flavor combinations needed here.
19. Peach Iced Tea
Southern comfort in a glass bottle! Peach Iced Tea combines two perfect summer companions – sweet juicy peaches and freshly brewed tea – into liquid gold.
The peach flavor tastes surprisingly authentic, like biting into the real fruit. The tea backdrop adds complexity without stealing the spotlight.
20. Raspberry Iced Tea
Crown the champion! Raspberry Iced Tea achieves beverage perfection by marrying tangy berry sweetness with robust tea depth in perfect harmony.
Every sip delivers a one-two punch of flavor – first the familiar comfort of tea, then the bright pop of raspberry. Not too sweet, not too tart. The undisputed GOAT of the Snapple universe.
