So after the disappointment of chocolate bacon tea this morning, I pulled out something I know is good. This is sweet and yummy!

I’m staying at a friend’s house ths week and I knew she’d be up for trying anything bacon-flavored so I brought this along. We brewed some up this morning to drink with our eggs.

This tea tastes like chemically-laced chocolate and ham. We couldn’t drink more than a few sips. I know it was a novelty tea, but the chemicalness of the chocolate was just gross. Yuck!

My friend will not drink “ham water” again. Lol!

That sucks. I wonder if a maple bacon has been done (I’m sure it has).

Fuzzy_Peachkin

52teas also did a maple bacon one

looks like Della Terra just put up a chocolate bacon tea for the Autumn selection. I’ve never heard of chocolate covered bacon, but then I don’t like bacon, so I wouldn’t know about these things :p

Fuzzy_Peachkin

I only like bacon on occasion. I got this tea just to see if someone could actually pull this off.

OMGsrsly

It might be worth it for me to toss some bacon bits into the maple tea i love so much, just to see if I could maybe get something drinkable…

Fuzzy_Peachkin

Let me know if it’s any good! :-)

This was marked “Happy Tea” and was in a Teavana bag, but there was no ingredient list and I can’t find it anywhere. It looks like a guayasa with berries and that’s what it tastes like Yummy, but not something I’d have all the time.

Am I crazy to have something with Valerian root this early in the day? Probably. This is a really nice blend though. Pretty light for a chai, but I love that it’s heavy on the cinnamon and cloves. The vanilla in this is also nice!

Short Sorceress

Quite possibly :) Valerian always makes me so sleepy.

I’m trying to get through the rest of the box this weekend so I can send it out Monday or Tusday so I’m kind of randomly working my way through the box!

Well I don’t think it tastes anything like cheesecake, but it is kind of yummy. I don’t have much experience with honeybush. This is sweet and lightly coconut. There is a kind of creamcheese scent that I’m not digging. It does make me curious to try more honeybush.

Ooh! I love floral teas that don’t taste like potpourri! This one is very nice! I can definitely taste the rose and jasmine. It’s lightly sweet too.

TeaKlutz

Yay floral teas! That’s one of the only kinds of flavored teas I can stand. I feel like I need to start accumulating some for when I feel like a happy afternoon tea…

Fuzzy_Peachkin

You should check out rose violet calendula oolong by Butiki. It is beautiful. It’s the first floral tea I liked!

What a lovely oolong! Very creamy, lightly floral- almost like orchids.

Muddy, strong pu’erh. Bright, tart lime flavor.

This one gave me an uncomfortable tickle in the back of my throat. To avoid any possible allergic reaction, I dumped most of the cup.

Both the base and apple flavor were a bit bland. I tried adding honey to bring out the apple, but no success!

I like the depth added to the mint by the green tea. Nothing very special though. I like the mint from my backyard better. Nothing beats fresh mint!

caile

I grow mint in a container – it is great fresh!

Fuzzy_Peachkin

And it’s great to add to food too! :-)

I run, I sing, I drink tea. That’s the best description I have of me.

I’ve always enjoyed tea, but have just started trying out a lot more loose teas and varied brands. I’m really excited about a site like steepster so I can read about what people think about different teas.

Oh and I really hate Lipton tea. There’s something just awful about it and I can’t understand why nearly every local diner only has Lipton.

Also I’m on the search for a full-bodied, fruity blackberry tea. So if you have any suggestions feel free to throw them my way! :-)
