This is a nice tea for its price tag ($1.99/20 ct). The list of ingredients is quite long (peppermint, vanilla, orange peel, cinnamon, milk thistle, chicory, carob, blackberry leaves…) but what you’re basically getting is a vanilla tea with just a hint of cool peppermint. I’m a little weird about vanilla in tea as it tends to overwhelm everything else, which is indeed the case here. Still, this makes a perfect stocking stuffer. The box art is adorable (be-sweatered polar bear and narwhal with ornaments hanging from its horn) and it won’t break the bank.

I LOVE Trader Joe’s! And I LOVE green chais! Do they have a caffinated version?

I believe they do, but I haven’t been to a TJ’s in years.

drank Mango Black Tea by Trader Joe's
62 tasting notes

Very smooth! The actual mango taste is not too subtle nor too pronounced, and it melts softly into the taste of the black tea. I drank it without sweetener or milk as usual, but adding those (especially the former) would probably heighten the experience by bringing out the sweetness of the mango…otherwise, the flavor might just be a bit too weak.

I’ve tasted a lot of Irish Breakfast teas; this is not my favorite.

Used as a base for some of the strongest bulk peppermint leaves I think I’ve ever tasted. Wow (mint fumes making eyes water)! I’m awake now, anyway…

Some mornings - like the mornings it takes three times as long to get your eyes open and twice to get dressed because nothing feels cozy enough - you just need to grab the first bag that doesn’t require anything but hot water. This fit on a bad clothes day when nothing else did (beverage or apparel, either one.)

Still a good morning tea, but NOT in a travel mug. As a matter of fact, I have yet to find a tea I like from a travel mug. All I can taste is plastic lid.

Nice and stout. Bought it on the road and it was enjoyable even with yucky hotel water.

Awesome, has great malty notes

Heyes

Yeah, the malty notes. That’s the flavor I couldn’t describe! When I update my review, I will credit your review in kind.

This is a good basic breakfast tea that holds up quite well to the milk-dousing that I put most of my tea through. I like it! And you can’t beat the price.

Very sweet with a strong citrus taste without being bitter. Agave brings out the flavor.

I enjoyed my tea. Relaxing after my long day yesterday.

I enjoyed this tea, though the flavor was a bit weak… I probably could’ve steeped it for longer and been fine.

A grim, joyless slog born more of a sense of duty to sunken costs than any desire.

li-chan

Couldn’t have said it better myself!

Warm, bitter, and familiar.

This tea was so drunk.

I’m just kidding, folks! The only sense in which this tea was drunk is the regard in which I drank it, which is to say, the tea was drunk by me. It’s like the Douglas Adams joke.

But racist “humor” is no joke. Self-deprecation is a tyrant far crueler than a thousand British empires. I guess it’s equally cruel to Oliver Cromwell, but he was a really bad guy.

Anyways, this tea was fine. Pleasant.
