It took me far too long to try this tea. Cranberry and pear in a tea. That’s bound to be a smashingly good match. I appreciate the big chunks of fruit in this blend.
While I don’t taste any cranberry, I get a creamy pear candy. More specifically, the flavour reminds me of Ahlgrens bilar candy. Oh man, I miss being able to get those anytime I wanted, whether it was when IKEA stocked them in Canada before switching to their house brand, or when I lived in Sweden and they were everywhere.
I also like drinking this one without any additives. I can see a French tea shoppe come out with a blend like this. It’s a fruit blend but without unnecessary sweeteners or fillers that can be found in many DAVIDs blends.

We certainly don’t have enough pear-flavoured things in North America! I hope anyone considering trying this or the candy will enjoy them. :)
Ha! Is this the candy, Fjellrev? Maybe I should order some to try it. :)

Yeah, with shipping and handling it comes out to over $13.00 for a quarter pound. It would be fun to try them, but not at that price!
Haha seriously! I used to order from northerner.com, and see that they still carry them! That could be an option:

creamy pear candy? Onto the wish list it goes. :)
Sounds good.
I’m with Starfevre! I need to find some of this candy you’re speaking of. :D
This is one of my favorites from David’s. And yes, that candy does sound good!
I also really enjoyed this one when I tried it a while back. Might have to buy some..

Yep, that’s the one! That’s so freaking expensive though. IKEA used to sell them for under $3.

That’s a lot cheaper!!
Yeah, shipping is really reasonable too. Too bad they don’t have as much as they used to, though. Over the years, they’ve shifted more towards specializing in snus. :/. But of what they have, I also recommend Marabou chocolate! :)
Damn, I should make an order. It’s been too long haha.
