I don’t drink this to “detox”. I drink it for the pleasing flavor. I love licorice, and the other spices are fun. I don’t add sweetener- I think it would detract from the flavors.
I am an RN, married, live in IL, and a total tea fanatic. Originally I’m from Upstate NY, where you can actually find tea. Things are more challenging in Southern IL, where everyone drinks iced tea. For me, tea is hot.
