What a lovely surprise! I wouldn’t normally reach for an herbal bagged tea, but I decided to give this one a shot based on Martin’s recommendation and I’m so glad I did! The flavor of this one really blew me away. The name is spot-on…it tastes and smells like freshly squeezed orange juice! Super natural and refreshing and I’m guessing it would make an amazing iced tea!
Flavors: Orange, Orange Zest, Sweet
Preparation
I have a weird soft spot for Teekanne bagged teas. And for opuncia/prickly pear.
The tea surely smells like opuncia, in a fresh, not artificial way. It is fruity and sweety, with some straw green tea character in the background.
And it also tastes decently. there is a balance between the base green tea and opuncia flavouring, the tea is not overdone and it’s really pleasant to drink.
It’s not a double jackpot, but I really like it.
Flavors: Fruity, Prickly Pear, Sweet
Preparation
Lime tea is not one you come across everyday but I was excited for this because I love lime. This summer I made the very best lime and raspberry popsicles. I still make them. I also made a lime cheesecake. So I was excited for this tea. It does a great job of capturing the essence of lime. I really do think of fresh lime drinking this yet it still has a tea element. Very nice cold. And also pleasant hot. I like it.
The first couple of cups I drank hot, not good. From then on, I drank the rest of the bags cold. Much more pleasant as a cold tea. I have no idea what a heart cherry is but it does have a cherry flavor and something else a little odd. Not my favorite cold tea, but not bad either. There are better berry teas out there
I think the tea I have is just Ginger Orange, I think the Ginger and Orange is a different tea but I don’t feel like adding it. This is the least Gingery ginger tea of the bunch I have tried from Teekanne. The orange is what hits you, and then you taste a little bit of Ginger. It’s a nice combination. Would be fun to make a cake or something with similar flavor. Probably not anything I will be doing anytime soon though…Overall…nice.
Flavors: Orange
Hadn’t noticed this one in the store before. Its turmeric ginger…probably once of the healthiest teas… turmeric has a wide range of benefits and I think they are tiny bits instead of powder. Good for you and tastes good for you. Not my turmeric drink of choice, I prefer a golden milk with spices. But easy
Flavors: Ginger, Turmeric
Cant really taste the lemon, just the bite of the ginger. Could come in handy when sick or making a hit toddy. Ginger is really good for you and nice to have in a quick and easy tea… although making it with real ginger and lemon is easy to. This is nice when you want tea in literally seconds.
This is for the tea called malve, I think its just hibiscus. I just dont feel like adding another so here we go. Its your regular degular slightly sour, lotta body, hibiscus. If you need hibiscus, it will do! Would only rec. if you need hibiscus.
Flavors: Sour
More chamomile fennel tea. It seems to be a very popular flavor here in Germany. I think it tastes Identical to the Mesmer tea- going from memory. I don’t like the smell though. I feel like on the nights I drank it, I slept much better though. A good one for upset stomach. Wouldnt recommend drinking for fun but for certain purposes
Flavors: Chamomile, Fennel
Im still trying to work my way through all of the cheaper brands, got sidetracked a little. Taste like a Mesmer tea. Taste like fennel and other herbs. No distinct flavor and not particularly delicious but good to get sole random herbs in my body.
Another treat from Martin! This one came in a standard tea bag.
Mmm, this is a nice herbal, hot or cold! I taste a lot of orange and orange zest. It’s naturally a little sweet, and there’s some sour in there too. I left the bag in while it was hot, enjoyed it, forgot about it for a while, then added a little ice. At the end of the sip, there’s a good repeat of orange, orange zest, sweet, and sour. Thanks, Martin!
Flavors: Fruity, Orange, Orange Zest, Sour, Sweet
Preparation
Last tea from my Teekanne fruit variety box.
Distinct elderflower aroma with a bit of orange.
Very rich, complex taste, with apple in the front, elderflower more in the back and citrus peels complimenting the mix, with no sourness and only a bit of sweetness. Really decent fruit blend.
Flavors: Apple, Citrus, Elderflower, Orange
Preparation
Really yummy aroma of orange juice, a bit of essential oils from the peels and rich orange jam background. Everything seems fairly natural.
And the taste is also great. It has some very strong orange juice and orange jam qualities, distinctly sour, slightly tart, almost not sweet.
I like it. A lot. Nice to see something like that from a big company.
Flavors: Citrus, Jam, Orange, Pleasantly Sour, Tart
Preparation
Forest fruit jelly/forest fruit juice aroma, fairly natural and pleasant.
And really nice taste, a bit sour and tart, with only a trace of sweetness.
Flavors: Berry, Fruit Punch, Fruity, Pleasantly Sour, Tart
Preparation
Fruit pie aroma. Strong, warming, sweet, natural, tempting.
Slightly sour and tart in taste, fortunately only barely sweet, fruity and natural. I like this one. It’s balanced and rich for a cheap bagged tea brand.
Flavors: Cake, Fruity, Pleasantly Sour, Sour, Tart
Preparation
Strong aroma, at the same time fruity and leafy, complex and fairly natural.
Sourish taste with no sweetness, more citrusy than raspberry (the namesake fruit seems to linger in the background).
Really nice as far for a big company cheap fruit tea.
Flavors: Citrusy, Fruity, Pleasantly Sour, Raspberry, Sour
Preparation
I continue to stand by my conviction that chamomile is always going to taste like chamomile, so why buy designer jeans to dig in the garden? (My personal preference is bulk loose leaf to mix and match.)
But a bag of Teekanne’s chamomile (I have no idea from where or whence it came) came in handy last night when I was in a dog-tired stupor from a week’s worth of fireworks-induced sleep-terruptions. I paired it with a bag of my beloved Tazo Glazed Lemon Loaf and could feel my neck muscles un-knot as I sipped.
We had fireworks here throughout the Canada Day weekend, with accompanying sleep-terruptions. (Who thinks it’s fun to set off fireworks at 2:30 A.M.?) I hope you sleep better this week!
I think the neighborhood kids’ supply has finally fizzled out—that or I was so tired I slept through last night’s round. (Little village municipal ordinance that allows ’em is about to expire, so maybe…)
Apparently we are surrounded by people who can afford the really big stuff….there have been fireworks for days and it lasted until after midnight on the Fourth! Thankfully, Sam the King of Dogs does not even seem to notice fireworks. I am tired of being awakened by them, though.
