This tea scared me a bit after the first wiff. All I could smell was the juniper bushes, although it reminded me of home since we had these bushes around our house, but still not sure if it is something that I want to drink.

The brew was a nice lightish reddish color and the smell is still very much juniper berries in your face with maybe a hint of rooibos. I did sweeten it a just a bit with rock sugar, because of the smell. It took a minute to get my courage up to try a sip and hmmm this really surprised me. it was pretty darn sweet and I hardly put in much rock sugar, and I could taste the zippiness of the ginger and I wonder if the sweetness didn’t come from the lemongrass. The juniper berries were much more mellow than I thought it would be… this is pretty darn good.

Once a again a tea surprises me and tastes different than it smells. This is a pretty tasty detox diet and I think most people will like it! I will drink this again for sure.

I have been wanting to drink tea for about a year now. I love the idea of tea but I go through times when I don’t drink any…. I know that it is good for me but sometimes I just don’t make it. I think that finding a place like this will help me remember to drink happiness! I have really only tried Teavanna teas and have a whole cupboard full of them. I recently just bought a few teas from other companies and are waiting impatiently for them! :)

I tend to like fruity teas or spicy, sweet teas. I like them to have lots and lots of flavor. I am looking the ultimate chocolate tea and the ultimate coconut tea. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This forum looks like such a friendly and warm place, I can’t wait to learn more and more about tea as well as enjoy all of the different kinds.
