This tea is one that I like a lot, so was happy to get it as Day 3 of my Tea calendar. The tea brews up very pretty deep velvety ruby (hibiscus and beetroot) and also gives you a mini aromatherapy session. The tartness and slight sweetness balance well. I enjoy drinking this one hot or iced but sometimes it’s a bit acidic for me, so I have to limit this tea.

I’m not a fan of coconut in any form so I was surprised when I liked both the aroma and flavor of this blend. I could have done without the stevia, and wondered what this tea would be like with steamed milk. I’ll try my second cup that way.

brewed with 1.5 tsp and 8oz – the scale won’t recognize the measurement.

Green tea with quite a few additions, it’s probably 1/3 to 1/2 green tea. It’s quite pale and after brewing had a sheen to the surface of the tea, maybe from the candied bits of pineapple. The tea is sweetened with stevia. Unfortunately I think I’d like it better without that added sweetness and would prefer to add honey as needed.

I’ll finish my sample but I’m unlikely to buy this one to keep on hand.

In ‘flavors’ here it lists peppermint – please note there is NO mint of any kind in this tea. I hate mint and it also irritates acid reflux and GERD.

This tea is just like having a slice of banana nut bread. I ordered a cup brewed in the store so not sure of the tea quantity, but i’ve brewed two 16 oz. cups from the same bag. One thing about this tea though it that in order for it to really taste like brea, I kept the teabag in the entire time. The tea didn’t get strong enough for me until the 10-15 minute mark, but by then it was cool enough to drink. I will definitely buy some of this
