Arby Advent Backlog
While I don’t prefer this to licorice root-based teas, I quite enjoyed this one! It has that classic flavor, basically what you’d expect. Unlike with licorice root, you need to sweeten it a little to make the flavors come together. I shared this one with my dad when I was visiting, and he absolutely loved it.
Advent calendar day 7: Plain/straight herbals
I’m starting to run out of ideas for caffeine-free tea themes, but since I have quite a few straight herbals I thought this could occupy one or two days. This is a tisane made of fennel seed. It smalls and tastes similar to anise or liquorice, but when it grows it looks more like dill. I actually really like anise and fennel in teas (far more than licorice root), so I find this a decent herbal for calm evenings or just to have something to drink. I originally bought fennel seed tea to help with stomach aches/digestion upsets and now I find I enjoy it enough to drink it regularly.
Flavors: Fennel, Fennel Seed, Herbs, Licorice
The dry tea has prominent and distinctive smell. The only thing I can think of to compare the smell to is licorice allsorts candy. It has been many years since I have eaten licorice allsorts but if I remember correctly it smells like the soft licorice allsorts with the tiny blue or pink colored balls stuck to it.
When I made the tea the smell was not as prominent as when it was dry but I found the taste to be quite pleasant.
Flavors: Fennel
This is the real thing, the real fennel tea. this is what it is supposed to taste like. 3-crown does an amazing job with this tea. fennel is good for digestion and soothing sore throats. It just relaxes you in general. Personally, I’m a huge fan of fennel, so this tea is perfect for me. So I would only recommend this tea for people who know that they like fennel. And if you don’t know, well why no time like the present to give this tea a try ;)
Would you say that fennel has the same flavor as licorice root but without the cloying aftertaste? I’m not sure I’ve had fennel in a tea before, but it sounds interesting. I do like it in other things!
I think so! I really enjoy the aftertaste in licorice root, but I understand how others don’t!
Yes, I feel like it’s definitely one of those love/hate sort of foods!
I’m one of those few people in Camp Fennel/Anise/Licorice Root. I love black licorice flavors. :-)
