I kind of hated this tea when I first got it. I wasn’t overly fond of the the almost syrupy citrus-spice taste (not a great description), but I’ve come to like it. I don’t have a sentimental nostalgia story to go with it, but it was a pretty good drink.

This tea is tough as balls. It also tastes very good. I like strong tea, and usually leave the bag in forever, but this bag I take out. It’s great with a tiny bit of soy milk and a tiny sprinkle of sugar. Next box, I’m ditching the sugar. I can’t wait to get this again.

A delicate, comfortable tea. I take it with a tiny splash of soy milk, and I leave the bag in. Refreshing, but she’s more of an afternoon or nighttime tea than a morning one.

I’m working on a box of this: so far, so good. It’s not much in the way of pumpkin, but the pumpkin pie spices are very nice. It doesn’t need sugar, and I leave the bag in. No soy milk, no honey, just the tea, which is good in my book.

“Have you ever done the cinnamon challenge?” No, but I’ve finished a box of Bengal Spice, does that count? Granted, it tastes fair enough with a dash of sweetened soy milk, but I don’t leave the bag in, as I do for other teas.

One of my favorite fruity Celestial Seasonings teas. It’s not too sweet, and I’ve been meaning to pick up another box, as I haven’t had it in a seriously long time. It doesn’t need sugar, about a quarter of a teaspoon suffices for me. A sweet, pleasant tea that actually tastes like raspberry.

I’ve gone through several boxes of this tea. I drank it so much in high school that my parents still pack me with a box or three when I visit home. It’s a great tea, a comfortable illness tea. It could do with less hibiscus and more lemon, though.

I like a solid berry flavor, and I like a solid hibiscus flavor. This was a good tea, as I remember it. Heavy-handed on the darker berries, which was fine by me.

I got this a couple of years ago during the summer: stone fruits (and stone fruit flavored things) suit summer very well. It’s not as bold of a flavor as I would have liked, but a mild peach tea can’t go wrong in my book.

I suppose this is my lesson never to drink apple-flavored tea anymore…and to be cautious of cinnamon. The sickeningly sweet fake-apple taste is strong in this one, bought a box years ago, and I’ve only recently dug it out of the back of my cupboard for a redemption round.
