Jaime drank Zingiber Ginger Coconut by Teavana

I hate ginger. Yes, I do. Hate it. Had I known this tea had ginger in it, I wouldn’t have bought it.

Why’d I buy it? The salesgirl took the lid off the tin, fanned the smell towards me, and told me it tasted like a snickerdoodle. Yes, thank you, I’ll have 2 oz.

And it does taste like a snickerdoodle. I don’t notice the ginger at all. It’s creamy and coconutty and lovely. A very nice tea after a long day of work. I brew it for 10 minutes.

I really must remember to get this tea next time. Snickerdoodle? Sounds great for the upcoming fall!

It would be a great fall tea! I’m about 4 hours away from the closest Teavana, so I’m hoping I don’t run out before I get more.

And if you like cookie-flavored teas, Almond Cookie from the Spice and Tea Exchange is amazing. I nearly cried when I ran out. Seriously.

I may have to try that one as well. I have an Almond Biscotti from Teavana which is amazing, I will have to buy a full lb if it ever is discontinued. Is the rooibos a strong taste in the zinzibar ginger? I’m not a huge fan of red rooibos but haven’t tried any of teavanas.

You can definitely tell it’s there, but it’s not the dominant flavor. If you’d like, I could send you some to try out.

If it’s not a problem that would be great. Can I send you anything in return?

Not a problem at all! Will pm you!
