11 Tasting Notes
I will give this tea a solid B. Very expensive for what it is, and high on the calories to boot, mostly because of the sugar in the tisane itself. It is quite sweet, but I did add a little splenda to brighten it up a little. Very fruit punchy, and a great tea for summer. I’d drink it a lot if it was cheaper.
I got the tea solo, which was 3.5 grams of tea. It got me one 64 oz Takeya pitcher with a good third left over. Definitely not enough to make another picture with.
Flavors: Fruit Punch, Fruity, Mango, Orange
Preparation
First things first, I do not like hot green tea so my only experience is with this iced. And it’s pretty darned good. I made a 64 oz pitcher, so 4 tablespoons of tea. 8 Splenda packs. I like my teas on the sweet side. It’s nice and fruity, but you can still taste the nice green.
Thankfully I found it at Giant, so I can buy more without having to place an order with Tiesta.
Preparation
Oh my goodness, Fireberry.
This has to be my favorite tea right now.
So wonderfully tart with cranberry and deliciousness.
Don’t need to add too much sweetener, just enough to balance the tart. Also tastes delicious hot or iced!
Flavors: Cranberry, Tart
Preparation
This is one of my favorite teas ever! I prefer over David’s Tea’s Forever Nuts. I just think the flavors blend better together.
I find I do not need sweetener, but adding 1 Splenda pack makes it taste like and almond cookie :D
Flavors: Almond, Cookie, Cream, Nuts, Sweet
Preparation
LOVE LOVE LOVE. I have a thing for lemons. I have a thing for black tea. This is the prefect meeting point between the two. The dry tea smells like straight up lemon oil, but the taste is so much more subtle. You can taste both the black tea and lemon. Steep for exactly 4 minutes and you’re golden.
Flavors: Citrus, Lemon
Preparation
I actually really enjoy this tea. I think it’s just delicious. The lemongrass and lemon/orange really comes out, and the bergamot is not overpowering. I just add a small bit of splenda to balance out the bitterness, and it works out wonderfully.
Flavors: Bergamot, Citrus, Lemon, Lemongrass, Orange
