So I was perusing the tea aisle in my local grocery, mostly looking for holiday teas (which no stores in my area seem to carry, WTF?!). I’ve never heard of this brand, but I picked up a box on a whim because I’ve enjoyed linden tisanes in the past, but don’t have one in my cupboard.
They recommend two teabags per 8 ounces of water, which is like… what? I used two bags for my 16-ounce mug and it came out lovely, even with a short steep. The soft, gently floral linden blossom is the star here, and it has such a light and airy flavor that’s perfect for floating away to sleep. The peppermint is here in a supporting role, and adds just enough minty sweetness. The combination of the two is lovely, and makes for a soft yet flavorful tisane that’s perfect for bedtime.
Very pleased with my random $2-3 purchase! :P
Flavors: Creamy, Floral, Hay, Linden, Mint, Peppermint, Smooth, Sweet
I used to be able to buy Stash and Celestial Seasonings and a few other brands of holiday teas and this year – nothing. Stash was getting harder and harder to find and I have a couple of people at Christmas who want White Christmas. I have to order online.
Linden teas have become one of my favorite teas for the evening. I’ll have to watch for this brand around me!
Our Walmart Neighborhood Market (slightly better selection than the regular Walmart) carries just a handful of Stash items—but only the ones popular with the hoi polloi.
I’ve been checking for probably the last 3 years and nothing, not even Celestial Seasonings! QQ I think the closest thing I ever saw was Tazo Joy at Target? I used to be able to get all of the Stash ones as well, but not in this part of the country.
I don’t recall seeing Linden with peppermint before?
I’ve liked their strait linden tea, a mellow inoffensive cup for bedtime. I’ll try adding a peppermint bag to it.
I think Harney has a linden-peppermint combo.
