From Teavana

Perfect for celebrating the bright beauty of spring, this Xue Long green delight is lush and full with an amazing array of fruit and floral surprises. Strawberry, apple, sliced orange, and lemongrass are complemented with a squeeze of tart grapefruit flavor and then balanced to perfection with soft notes of marigold and hibiscus. Best over ice, this invigorating green tea infusion swirls sweet and tart together for a refreshing tea as unique as you.

Bold, bright flavors of pink grapefruit, balanced by sweet strawberries, apples, and lemongrass

I get frustrated with Teavana because it seems like every tea has hibiscus and lemongrass. And artificial flavoring. This one is decent…I can taste a little bit of the strawberry and grapefruit. It’s not bitter at all but I’m a grapefruit lover. I eat a ton when they are in season. I get two good steeps out of it before it tastes like the watery strawberry lemonade tea they have. I wish there was more actual tea in it. Teavana tends to be stingy with the actual tea in their blends.

I bought this on a whim while checking out the Teavana annual sale. It was of course not on sale, but with grapefruit being one of my favorite flavors I decided to give it a try and I am not disappointed.
I’m always wary going into teavana teas as they are either really good or I never want to pick them up again. This one however landed on the Really Good side and has become a staple in my collection. I’m obsessed. It’s a great slow done tea before bed sweet enough for me to drink it instead of sneaking to the kitchen to get something to munch on but soft and soothing enough that I wind right down.
I bought two ounces the other day and I’m already only a cup or three away from being out. Definitely a must not run out in my cupboard.

I’ve had this one mixed with their Strawberry Lemonade Herbal and loved it. Decided I needed to see how it was on its own too.

The dry leaf smells very citrus-y. I think I am getting grapefruit and orange. I absolutely love the color of this as it poured into my cup! It mostly tastes like strawberry with a good hint of citrus, I’m thinking the grapefruit. The addition of a sweetener seems to deepen the flavors, making it an even more enjoyable cup. I really like this in the Winterberry Blend, iced and hot, but I think I like it on it’s own just as much. I know that Teavana gets a bad rap around here but I am finding a few that I really enjoy!

Preparation
Boiling 2 min, 0 sec 3 tsp 20 OZ / 591 ML

This is one of my favorite teas! I went through about an ounce in a week when I first got it. So fruity and tasty!

Kayla

Sundaysipping – How do you store it? Is this one of the ones that I have to be careful about what kind of tin it is in due to the citrus?

sundaysipping

I actually don’t know. I use 12oz mason jars to store my tea — they keep air out beautifully, can be thrown into the dishwasher (which gets any lingering odors out), and I keep them in a cabinet so I’m not worried about light exposure. The Teavana tins do a great job of preventing aroma-leakage, but I found them expensive and extremely difficult to de-scent once I’d used up the tea they were holding.

I guess because it’s a tea with grapefruit it in it could require one of the citrus-friendly Teavana tins.

Kayla

Thanks :)

sundaysipping

Hope it helps! :-)

I tried Winterberry in store yesterday and it was super tasty but intensely sweet. I’m really curious about all the teas they have but I’ve had bad luck with so many (and a few really amazing winners), that it’s really hard to want to pick up 50g in one shot.

Kayla

If there are ones in my cupboard you are interested in, I could send them your way so you can try them without investing in a whole 50g.

Light and fruity. Makes a great warm weather tea and absolutely great iced. A little sweetening helps deepen the fruit flavors. Like others I didn’t get much green tea flavor out of this tea, but definitely one to keep around for when I want to drink tea on warmer days.

Flavors: Apple, Grapefruit, Strawberry

Finally – a Teavana tea that doesn’t make me feel like I should pour it down the drain after the first couple of sips…this one definitely doesn’t bring up any green tea flavours, but the strawberry and grapefruit come across in a wonderfully well-melded mess of tastiness.

It’s still not a great tea – and I likely won’t buy more – but as far as Teavana blends go I certainly won’t diss this one as heavily as I would some of the others.

Being totally honest here.

I got this from Stephanie two weeks ago. I can’t bring myself to drink it. It lives on my kitchen counter and I always walk through, pick up the bag, and smell it. Then I put the bag back down for the next time. If I drink it, it won’t be there for me to smell anymore and it smells like the best thing ever. That probably makes me weird.

I want it in hand soap and body wash and candles and…well you get it.

Frolic

LOL, this is the best review for a untasted tea I’ve read.

Stephanie

LOL. I was iffy on it hot but it was pretty good iced ;)

Stephanie

A friend of mine picked it out as my birthday gift based on scent alone!

albertocanfly

Oh, man.. Now I want to get this tea just so I can smell it:P

Mandy

But, it’s a green tea! It must be something special to even think of drinking! Haha

We need to start a tea potpourri business. Gives us something to do with our stashes! ;)

Another backlog (I’m sorrrrryyy)

This tea intrigued me from the beginning, and once I smelled it I knew it was coming home with me.

I’m glad it did.

Teavana must be improving their teas because I’m happy to say that this tasted of strawberry, grapefruit, and gasp green tea! It was sweet but more delicately so with actual tea being evident.

Pleased music27note is pleased.

This tea steeps absolutely beautifully. It holds the green/blue-green that is prominently green tea but within that it also holds a vivid pink hue from the fruit&additives. It’s pretty and aromatic and tasty and quickly becoming one of my favorites. I’ve started taking it with me when I visit my pseudo-sister.

A friend and I shared a couple of cups of this over a game of Dominion last night. (Not tea related, but if anyone likes board games do I ever recommend Dominion. I come from a long history of playing Catan but this is an awesome change. Also, it can be played with just two players so the boy and I can play anytime we are bored.)

Anyways, much like I noted the first time I brewed this up, it is heavy on the grapefruit, light on the strawberry, but still very much a fresh green tea. I like the tartness, though I wouldn’t have minded if there had been a bit of berry to round out the bottom notes in the flavour. Overall, though, a very pleasant tea!

Sil

haha catan is a great entry game in to euro games imo but i hate it. too much luck involved! dominion is good for replayability and the 2 player factor :) sounds like a good time!

mewakeling

My partner would totally agree with you. We also play Ticket to Ride and Carcassone, but I find Dominion much more versatile in terms of replay ability.

mewakeling

Catan is a guilty pleasure of mine, but the luck factor kills the boy. He likes something he can strategise and control more variables in.

Sil

Puerto Rico; brass; urban sprawl; Cuba; all creatures big and small (2player); pandemic are just a few that I enjoy….

mewakeling

We also have Pandemic and Puerto Rico (Jace loves that one). I really want to try Brass. Is is a good game? I have heard long and complicated, but is it worth it?
