Lipton

One of my favorite teas to have, especially if I’m feeling too wound up. From time to time, my jaw will get super tense or my teeth will hurt, and this is the perfect tea to calm me down. Also wonderful for when you have an upset stomach!

The only tea-drinking experience more disappointing than being served a cup of Lipton Yellow Label is being served a Yellow Label teabag on the side of a pot of hot water.

When I travel in very basic hotels and guest houses in Asia, I am usually rather happy to find Lipton rather than other totally unknown lower-end brand.
It does not really make for a good tea, but at least it’s not bitter from the first dip of the bag into the water, the tea within the bag is not so powderish as to seep out of the bag and fill the bottom of the cup. The taste is very bland, very basic but not unpleasant.
I’ll never buy it and have it home but I find I can drink it without unpleasantness ;)

I never thought about how the sweetness of chamomile can blend in with pineapple to create a nice light and sweet herbal brew.

I think the bags are really cool, for one thing, and it smells so good as it’s steeping. A little bitter the first time I drank it, not one of the teas that’s good enough for me to drink without sweetening. I love the creaminess that comes from the vanilla, and this was my first go at hibiscus which was delightful too.

Goodness I haven’t been on here in awhile. I still have some swaps to mail out from months ago (I promise I haven’t forgotten about you!). I actually haven’t been home in several weeks and have been extremely busy with work and school which takes me to this rating.

I’ve been staying with my Mom (long story and it’s related to school not marital issues), and consequently I do not have my tea with me. I went to the grocery store in desperate need of tea and was surprised to discover that Lipton made pyramid sachets. It could be because I microwaved my water but I thought this tea was rather tasteless. I can’t say much more than that because I really couldn’t detect any distinct flavor, it essentially tasted like hot water.

I wasn’t a fan of this one hot. I’ll have to test it cold someday. :)

Had this at the airport today. Not awful not impressive but IT’LL DO.

The caramel is very subtle and the tea has a stronger coffee taste more than anything else.

Don’t really have strong feelings on this tea either way, and I’m usually not a fan of red teas to begin with. It’s a little bitter; I think the passion fruit might be a bit too overpowering, I wish there was more strawberry flavor! Sweetened up with honey or something might help it, but I haven’t touched it in a while.

Definitely my favorite of the pyramid tea bag Lipton teas! The ISLAND part of the title just kinda sums it up for me; really refreshing fruity mango taste that is actually as good as it smells!

This tea is stronger than the Island Mango; pretty good, generally fruity. I don’t recall truly tasting the blueberry, but it’s deliciously fragrant fo sho! So yeah a decent tea but not something to write home about.

I bought both this tea and the Lipton Purple Açai & Blueberry Superfruit at the same time and favor this tea over the other one! The fruity flavor is more prominent and refreshing, not too tart and not too sweet. Apparently the tea is becoming difficult to find, though, so that’s a bit of a bummer since it was my favorite Lipton Superfruit. APPARENTLY MY WAL-MART IS STILL CARRYING IT THOUGH…

Generally a good tart fruity green tea~ Not too overpowering, either. I haven’t actually had it for a while now, but I remember it being pretty darn delightful during late nights.

I received some of this loose tea from a lovely friend who swears by this tea as being the best Earl Grey tea available. Now that is a very big claim to stand up to so tonight I shall be the judge.

Colour: Reddy brown
Smell: Sweet jasmine (or if not jasmine then something very similar)

As well as smelling like jasmine it also tastes like jasmine which is a twist on your average Earl Grey. It seems to be jasmine instead of bergamot so it has a floral and slightly bitter taste, almost citrus bitter (similar to lemon rind). I don’t think this is really classed as an Earl Grey under my classifications (due to lack of sweetness) but it is a nice jasmine tea, nice not spectacular.

I will try this again soon and see if my score changes at all but I think overall it’s just an average cup of tea which sometimes is all that I really want.

My roommate and I love this tea. School offers this in our cafeteria, and it is such a guilty pleasure on cold nights. This is a tea that strongly resembles juice, and doesn’t taste bad when the bag is left in for a while.

This was a gift I received along with Bavarian Wild Berry (also by Lipton). I’m not much of a fan of either flavors, but this one is my least favorite of the two. I will try giving it away.

This is a very safe fruity tea that my friends seem to enjoy. I don’t prefer it all that much, though.
