drank Chocolate Chip by Adagio Teas

I love chocolate. I practically live on it. But for some reason, I’m not a big fan of chocolate in teas. It just doesn’t do it for me. I had the sample size of this tea because a co-worker loves it. I ended up throwing it out because I hardly ever drank it and when I did, I wasn’t happy.

It’s probably a perfectly good tea. I just don’t like choco teas. I wish I did. :(

I go for this tea when I’m in the mood for a plain, grassy green tea with no added flavors. This one has a lovely clean smell and it’s far more green in color than most green teas. Very light tasting. Delish!

I’m not well versed in actual British teas, so this one was a shot in the dark when I was at World Market. I’ll have this one when I feel like having something strong, with milk and sugar. As close as I’ll ever get to a “cuppa.”

drank Coconut Chai by Zhena's Gypsy Tea

I think this was the tea that made me like chai, since I used to hate it. This one convinced me because I love coconut! I used to be all about this tea in college, but I might have overdid it because I haven’t craved this tea in a while. But I do remember being super obsessed with it for a while.

drank Raspberry Earl by Zhena's Gypsy Tea

Definitely agree with everyone saying this tea is very strong on the raspberry flavor. Not that that’s a bad thing. A bit overpowering in regards to the earl though.

However, I still love this tea when I’m in the mood for a tea with some strong, fruity flavor.

drank Gypsy Rose by Zhena's Gypsy Tea

This is the best rose tea I’ve ever had. Great for afternoons. In my experience rose tea can be done either really well or really terribly. Since I’ve found this one, I probably won’t be buying other rose blends… out of fear. :)

I initially got this tea in the sample tin of 4 and this one was my favorite. I was happy to see that you can purchase just a tin of rose online, since I haven’t seen it in stores.

The best. Absolute best.

I first experienced the delicious smell of this tea at a friend’s house. She called it her “fancy Sunday morning tea.” Boy, was she ever right.

The smell of this tea kept coming back to haunt me so I ordered a tin from Harney & Sons. (the TINS though! They’re so cute, I keep all of them for planters for succulents.) And then I ordered some for my best friend. And then I ordered a box of 50 for myself because I no longer wanted it as a treat yoself tea. I wanted to have it all the time!

drank Earl Grey Lavender by Adagio Teas

Love this blend! This is my go-to when I’m making royal milk tea. Tastes great with all the milk and sugar, really warms you up on a cold winter day. Perfect for afternoons, a little bit too flowery for mornings.
