TEXAS LEGISLATURE STILL TO THIS DAY HAS FAILED TO OFFICIALLY DESIGNATE 'RIO RED GRAPEFRUIT JUICE' AND UNSWEET ICED TEA AS THE OFFICIAL STATE BEVERAGES OF TEXAS



The continued failure by the Texas Legislature over a multi-decade period to officially designate an official state beverage for Texas comprises yet another example of the repeated squandering of a golden opportunity by our state's often-incompetent lawmakers.

When the Legislature finally does vote to approve the wonderfully delicious Rio Red Grapefruit Juice (Rio Red Grapefruits being a variety of grapefruit that reportedly is grown commercially only in Texas) and iced black tea or iced green tea as our official state beverages, this will offer a long-overdue and well-publicized promotion of those alcohol-free and very healthful beverages in our state.

That official endorsement by the Texas Legislature will also offer a major boost throughout Texas to the commercial preparation and production and sales of Rio Red Grapefruit Juice and iced tea.


Official adoption of "Rio Red Grapefruit Juice" as an official state beverage for Texas will also boost the economy of the Rio Grande Valley ---the region of Texas where those distinctively appetizing grapefruits are grown commercially. 

Anyone wishing to learn more about "Rio Red Grapefruit Juice" may find it in the refrigerated fruit-juices section at their nearby H-E-B chain supermaket. H-E-B Supermarkets are headquartered in San Antonio, Texas.

One cup of H-E-B's "Rio Red" grapefruit juice contains 100 percent of the minimum daily recommended consumption levels for vitamin C, and 10 percent of the minimum daily recommended consumption levels for potassium. One cup of H-E-B-brand "Rio Red" grapefruit juice reportedly contains 370 milligrams of potassium.

The cited Rio Red grapefruit juice at H-E-B stores is also fat-free and sodium-free, which is very good for your health.
