Definitely a strong tea. A little too bitter for me, I will need to try steeping for less time. Not bad, but I prefer more of the malty Assam flavor in my breakfast blends. But if you are looking for a good wake-up tea, this gets the job done. Prepared with a lot of almond milk and stevia (to counteract the bitterness).

Truly tastes just like a pina colada. The pineapple dominates, but the coconut is fairly strong as well. The rooibos flavor is almost non-existent. It is a fairly oily tea and has a somewhat creamy flavor. I added stevia, but it would probably be sweet enough for most people on its own.

This is really good. Great raspberry flavor, just the right amount of tartness. The blend is really impressive looking with lots of whole raspberries. Prepared with stevia.

This is a good after dinner drink. With lots of milk, it kind of reminds me of a Grasshopper. The mint smell is really strong while brewing, but the taste is just right. I did have problems getting the chocolate pieces to melt (even though I used boiling water). I had to put the whole thing in the microwave and stir it like crazy. The chocolate flavor could have been stronger. Prepared with almond milk and stevia.

This one is interesting… Full bodied, more like a juice than a tea. Lots of tartness, and it seems like the tiniest bit of saltiness (kind of like Sour Patch Kids candy). The primary flavor is very berry, but the mango comes through fairly strong in the finish and aftertaste. This is either a love it or hate it kind of tea. I’m pretty sure I love it. Prepared with stevia.

This is my first white tea. I am definitely tasting white chocolate and some buttery notes. A little bland for me, but maybe that’s the nature of white tea. Prepared with stevia.

Maybe I didn’t make this correctly, but I’m not liking it. I don’t taste nuts or chocolate. It just tastes like a bland green tea to me. Prepared with stevia.

drank Yerba Mate by Samovar

This is pretty much your standard Yerba Mate. It’s not bitter, but it does seem to have a bit of a dirty taste. It tastes much better with milk. I prefer Mate Factor’s Green Yerba Mate. Prepared with almond milk and stevia.

drank Earl Grey Bravo by Adagio Teas

I got this in a sampler pack, it’s not a tea I would have purchased on my own. But, it’s pretty good for an Earl Grey and not overly perfumey tasting. Prepared with stevia.

This isn’t really my type of tea. It is okay, but nothing spectacular. The smell and flavor seems a little too veggie-ish for me. I can taste the jasmine, but prefer teas with stronger flavoring. Prepared with stevia.
