This tea really gives you a bang for your buck! It’s already cheap, and 50 grams fills a whole bag because it’s so light!
This is powerful stuff, and a bit too strong for me to enjoy on it’s own. However, make it into a latte with some vanilla syrup and it’s amazing. (This is the “candycane latte” that was on the Christmas menu at Teaopia, but they always have vanilla syrup so it can be made year round.)

A delicious alternative to a regular orange pekoe. This has become my “standard” black tea.
It has a sliiight spicy undertone, but isn’t as bold as most orange pekoes. I grew up adding milk to black tea, but this one’s delicious on it’s own.

This… tea.
This damn tea.
…IS DELICIOUS!!!
And there’s SOOOO many ways to enjoy it!!
1) Brewed on its own. A lovely rooibos with mild chocolate tones.
2) Amp it up with some sugar and milk. The sugar helps bring out the flavours.
3) Brew it in warm milk, DELICIOUS!!
4) Brew it in 4 oz of water. Pour it into a shaker with 4 oz. milk and ice to make an iced latte. Tastes like a mild milkshake.
5) Mix with steamed milk and a few pumps of chocolate to make the best latte you will ever experience in your life.

If you like vanilla then this is the tea for you. You taste the tea before the flavouring, which is the way tea should be.
I recommend this one over Bourbon Vanilla.

drank Milk Oolong by Teaopia

This tea is very perplexing… It’s a weight-loss tea… that tastes like BUTTER!! Haha.
Seriously though, this is my favourite “plain” oolong. (Fine Champaigne is farrr too bland for me.)
This makes a perfectly smooth cup. I only recommend re-steeping it once, though.

You are right it does taste like butter. Milk is the wrong word for it because if it actually tasted like milk I would know since I hate the taste of milk.

I’m actually loving this more than chai now! It tastes and smells like cinnamon heart candies, in a good way. It is complimented very well with some sugar, and makes a delicious latte!

This is… a great tea. Absolutely lovely. It’s got a leafy taste, but is very mild. The sucrose isn’t over-powering, and actually compliments it really well. It’s worth it for the health benefits alone.
I just wish it had caffeine…. sigh.
Also each ball can be re-steeped up to 4 times, still with a full flavour!

A beautiful Jasmine! It has a very mild, soothing flavour.
My only issue with it is now I can’t enjoy jasmine tea at Chinese restaurants any more, because it will never be as good as this one! ;)

Pretty much the best black tea in the store, if you like a STRONG cuppa. Beautiful, rich, dark, perfect with a splash of milk.
