I would like to taste more orange or peach flavor; the spicy ginger dominates here. Having said that, it’s one of my favorites, hot or cold. I use about 5 teaspoons for a 5 cup pot and steep for 4 minutes so the ginger has more time to develop. It’s a great tea to drink after you’ve indulged in fine food, the ginger settles the stomach.

With a name like Russian Black, I expected a smoky flavor but got quite a surprise. This is a sweet fruity blend. According to the description, this is a popular blend created for one of their tea parties. You can easily taste the strawberries and raspberries. I definitely will be picking up more of this so that we can try it as ice tea next time.

Picked this up last weekend and my family has already gone through several pitcher’s of it iced. This has a very strong peach flavor and the smell is great.

This is probably my favorite of all the green teas I have ever tried. Very versatile. It doesn’t taste too “green” (bitter might be a better word there). I feel it’s smooth and not too mellow. I like it iced and hot, sweetened or not. It’s a nice one to mix with florals or herbs. I have used it to make a nice remedy for sinus infections/congestion and have mixed it with clay to make a facial!

The black adds body but the white gives it a subtle sweetness and mellows it out. The pomegranate is just right, not too pungent. I don’t get the cream so much…maybe it’s making it smooth rather than giving it a cream flavor. I typically sweeten my tea but didn’t feel it needed it at all. Very nice treat to wake up to.

drank Pomegranate by Anna Marie's Teas
11 tasting notes

This is one of my summertime favorites. I always drink it cold and sweeten it with stevia. It almost has a floral quality to it on the back of the tongue. It is very mellow and delicate so I tend to steep it up to 10 minutes for a stronger flavor. I have used about 4 teaspoons for a 5 cup pot but thinking I might up it to 5 teaspoons.

Happy to say my efforts move the entire family away from soda to ice tea have been successful. This seems to be my husband’s favorite ice tea. The fruit bits add a pleasant raspberry taste. I’ve had plenty of others that had an artificial taste afterwards. We’ve already downed the entire pitcher. Looks like I’m going to have to start making a double batch.

Anna Marie’s Tea Shop was serving this at the Taste of Liberty event this evening. Given that the weather was warm and humid after a storm, this was a delight served iced. My husband enjoyed it so much that he actually suggested that I purchase some to fix at home. What a shock since he is usually teasing me that I have too much tea stock piled. Who was I to argue???

We had this iced for a family picnic. It went over real big. I’ve always enjoyed the green version of this blend served but I prefer the black version for summer. It holds up well iced.

The bitter cold this evening called for a strong tea. One of my sister-in-laws suggested this one. It was a great choice. Looking down into the teacup, I found the beautiful cinnamon color in the cup to be a sweet preview of the spice flavor to come.

This tea is not for me. Although I pick out the various flavors, it was just too many layers for my taste. There is a very strong aftertaste of cream that some might like if you are into vanilla or cream flavors.

drank Winter Mint by Anna Marie's Teas
86 tasting notes

Most companies describe the vanilla teas as warm so I think the name if fitting. Who doesn’t want to think warmth with all this cold weather? At first, I thought this also included caramel since it was so mellow. A sip begins with the vanilla smell, then the vanilla flavor and finishes with the soft hint of chocolate mint.

drank Pumpkin Pie by Anna Marie's Teas

Both of my boys love to eat pumpkin pie so I figured this would be a family hit. It was a nice holiday treat. I like how the chunks of fruit give a strong pumpkin taste without overpowering the tea flavor like so many pumpkin spice teas tend to do.

This is my comfort tea – the one I reach for whenever I need a little extra push. After a very busy weekend, I found myself reaching for this several times today.

Originally fixed a pot of this to drink hot but we were lucky enough to have a nice warm day so we switch to drink it iced. What a delight!

Sounds amazing! Are the chocolate and mint equally balanced, or does one override the other?

Just picked up a new supply. It was so fresh. They mentioned that it had just arrived. Until I had this cup I did not realize how much the original flavor had changed as I got to the small bits and pieces at the bottom of my tin. This new supply had a nice mellow chocolate flavor without the super strong minty flavor. Delightful cup.

Always come back to this one as my comfort tea. I’ve been trying to use up some of my other stash but find that this remains my favorite. Even with chocolate teas, I want them to taste like tea. This ones lives up to the name. You can taste the chocolate and the mint while still be reminded it is tea.

Thank goodness this is very forgiving with the steep time. This was smelling so good that the boys were begging for hot chocolate. Anyway, I got busy fixing their drinks and forgot my tea steeping. Outside of the fact that it was not as warm as I prefer, it still tasted great.

Just ran by my favorite shop and picked up another batch of Chocolate Mint this morning. I was trying to ration it out ‘til Christmas but … that is a week away. When I find a tea that I really enjoy the others just don’t curb the craving. All the other chocolate teas that I’ve tried have a hint of artificial flavoring that ruins it for me. I’m also particular about the chocolate/mint ratio. With this brand it is just a hint of mint.

I have to admit that this if my favorite tea. When one family heard about my tealog, she wondered what I’d write about since this is all that she usually sees me drink. I enjoy this tea any time of day – refreshing in the morning. At bedtime brewed as a decaf, it is a low-cal substitute for a cup of hot chocolate. With the mint it is a great tea to settle an upset stomach. Since it contains both black and green teas, I feel like I’ve covered all angles. I guess you’d have to call this my comfort tea.

My sister-in-law is visiting so we went with her choice this morning and it wasn’t a disappointment. This tea is a light fruity refreshing start to your day.

I first tasted this tea at one of Anna Marie’s special tea parties. Although the tea includes strawberry bits instead of cherries, each sip is like indulging in a big box of chocolate covered cherries.
