New Tasting Notes

About a tablespoon of honey combined with 1/4 cup lime juice and hot water to fill mug. Use this to stave off hunger, drink when bored, and especially useful when I have colds.

I can’t remember having drunk this on its own, but I would often mix this in a 2:1 ratio (2 being the white) with peppermint tea. I had a lot of trouble figuring out exactly how to brew it, considering the significant difference in brewing methods for white teas and tisanes. But when I occasionally did get it just right, I called it my “happiness tea”. It’s been a looong time since I’ve made this blend for myself, though.

Haven’t drunk this in a while, but I remember it being a nice, simple white tea.

Forgot to log yesterday…

I’m not usually a big green tea drinker, but I like this green tea with ginseng. Normally I drink black teas with sweetener, but for this I use only a small amount or sweetener or none at all. The bags are individually wrapped which makes it easier to transport. This was a good tea for drinking on campus while grading homework.

Oolong tea and I have a long and warring history. Pomegranate mixed with this tea is a good mix, though. It evens out all the things I dislike about oolong teas and transforms it into something I really loved!

This is one of the best teas I’ve ever had! :)

One of my favorite flavored green teas. Very refreshing to drink after a long day.

spicy and bitter in all the wrong ways.

Aroma and flavor reminiscent of beef jerky. Not awful, but strange.

Very relaxing. Light apple-like flavor.

A very refreshing tea. It has an interesting flavor that I don’t come across too often.

A delicious and fruity tea blend. Nutty, warm, and sweet. I had to brew it for a lengthened amount of time to really pull strong apple flavors from it.

A very fruity and spicy tea. Strong and energizing.

A very warm and spicy chai. Unlike others I’ve had in that it is sweet on its own.

A very lovely peppermint tea. Refreshing, light, and soothing.

decent bagged tea. will enjoy again!

This is my favorite Celestial Seasonings product by far, and one of the only bagged teas I keep on hand. It’s sweet and smooth and earthy, and it smells incredible. The vanilla flavor is strong and doesn’t taste artificial. It’s great before bedtime. It’s a sweet tea, but I do sweeten it lightly to bring out the vanilla even more.

My favorite tea.

I have to be in the right mood to drink this. I do like it before bed since it is non-caffeinated.

Used 1 rounded teaspoon per cup of boiling water for approximately 3 minutes, sometimes 4. I don’t drink this too often, as I tend to prefer green tea, but when I do drink it I enjoy it quite a bit.
Insert Doctor Who joke here. :)

This is one of the two teas I drink on a daily basis. I brew it at 170 degrees F for 2.5 minutes on the first brew and 5 minutes on the second.

Diverse and tasty blend of spices. Effects are noticeable and interesting.
