London Fruit & Herb Teas

My stomach is currently a raging torrent of fire, and this is basically the only thing in my cupboard I’m reasonably sure won’t make it worse.

Thanks, London Fruit & Herb Co. I love this stuff.

Usually dont like licorice root in teas, but licorice paired with lovely peppermint leaves, combines to make a wonderfup cup of tea! Smells minty & tastes great =]

Happy to have a cup of this again. This brand is what Celestial Seasonings wishes it was (and tries to make up for it with flashy packaging).

Slightly tangy, delicious blueberry flavor. Smooth in every way without that odd herbal tea aftertaste. Think the taste of blueberry yogurt without as much creaminess. It brews up a neat shade of dark pink as well, I assume from the dried blueberry content. Yum! Too bad they don’t have this flavor on black tea…

This tastes like “orange drink” I had as a kid. Not orange juice, but the sugary, watery orange drink.

Very sweet, I didn’t really get a lot of spice as I was hoping from the name. It has a little bit of tang, but nothing too exciting. I don’t think I would seek this out again.

A tea that I was pleasantly surprised by. The first thought as I opened the box was, toothpaste. I knew it was wrong to think it and if there are any Moroccans out there sorry but it really smelt like toothpaste. Although I’m sure Moroccans would buy their tea in teabag form or purely because it was going cheap at the supermarket.

However as I made the tea and I began to steep I could detect something both it taste and smell that was deeper than the Colgate scent. It was the herby green smell of fresh mint. Thankfully this more authentic mint taste overrode the mouthwash flavour which made for a very nice drink. Had two sugars in it as I think its supposed to be sweet and the sweetness did help the flavour of the tea, which was a first.

Not my usual cuppa and I don’t think it will be but nice all the same. Prehaps would be better on a hot summers day. Maybe with a hookah pipe and some old guys playing backgammon. But now I’m getting ahead of myself

I fully blame Leigh for turning me onto this one. I lack love for camomile but this is the tea that allows me to forgive its existance. This tea’s combo just works and is amazing for those really crap days when you want to go home & you just can’t. Think of this as a warm bath and a nap in a sippable form. :)

I pulled this out to drink today (it’s been a long time since I last had it) and was pleasantly surprised. The bag said to brew for 5 min., and I didn’t keep my eye on the clock too closely but I probably steeped it for around that time. Pink colour, fairly strong raspberry flavour (but not overpowering), but the green tea mellows it out. There’s no tartness or weird herbal taste—I’m definitely a fan!

They’ve done it again, another very good fruity infusion that tastes genuine without going overboard. At least when it’s hot, haven’t yet tried it iced, but I definitely will when the weather gets warm again.

I like their peach and blueberry, decided to try the raspberry. It’s made with real pulp and juice, and the taste comes through beautifully. I sweetened it very lightly with stevia and added milk for a special dessert tea.

I’m not impressed with the company when they say on the package of a green tea to steep for 5 minutes in boiling water. I steeped it for less time and with cooler water and the tea still ended up tasting bitter. In addition, the jasmine smells and tastes perfumey in an artificial sort of way. Next time I’ll bypass this tea, bleh.

This tea has an very convincing peach flavor. In fact, I know real peach juice is used in making it. The tea itself brews to a pale peachy color, and tastes almost like you’re drinking juice instead of tea. There is no bitterness whatsoever. I love it. It’s a shame there’s no caffeine in it, although.

This is an amazingly good tasting herbal tea. It brews up purple and tastes like fresh blueberry jelly or something similar. The only shame is that it’s decaf. I wish the grocery stores around me carried this brand.
