I normally avoid Lipton teas as much as possible, but sometimes you’re out of anything in the house and it’s too much trouble to drive anywhere that you can pick up better… so I’ve been stuck with a box of this for a while. It’s fairly bland and watery and the chai spices are rather hard to taste — well, everything is hard to taste. I discovered a way to make it palatable, though: throwing a bag of Lipton Spiced Chai and a bag of Lipton French Vanilla into the same mug in an attempt to use them up produced a concoction that was actually pretty worth drinking.
Whatever you do, though, don’t oversteep this; it will go straight from “watery” to “disgustingly bitter” with very little room in between.
