Loved the smell of this in the store, so I thought I’d give it a try.

So far I really enjoy it. The grenadine and vanilla blend well together, but it still has a tea taste to it.

An excellent spur of the moment purchase!

I made a huge mug of this to drink while doing my writing project at work today. I got one of the big pieces of citrus, so this cup was particularly on the citrus-heavy side, which was just fine.

Later, when I wanted cold water, I poured it right into the same mug to mix a bit with the tea that was leftover and has some yummy water to drink as well.

Almost ridiculously sweet, I can’t say I loved this cup. Did I like it? Debatable. It was drinkable, and I drank it, so that has to mean something, yes?

At one point, I found myself thinking ‘It tastes like juice warmed up.’ Which, pro or con, I’m not entirely sure.

I got a sample of this, hoping to find a cheaper alternative to Teavana’s Earl Grey Creme. It’s def. not a replacement, but it does stand on its own as a great morning tea.

There isn’t the same level of creaminess I get from Teavana’s Earl Grey Creme, but (and I’m totally guessing here) there does seem to be a smoother bergamont flavor (I’m assuming that what I’m tasting is the bergamont anyway. Still learning!) than straight Earl Grey’s – which I like.

So, not a substitute (still looking, might just have to cave to The Man), but a tea worth drinking of its own accord!

I really enjoyed this blend. When I went to the shop, I knew they had loose Twinings tea and was hoping to find Lady Grey – but that was sold out. So, on a whim, I snatched up Prince of Wales because it was on the lighter side. (I’m still easing my way into strong black teas.)

I found this to be so yummy! I added a bit of rock sugar to sweeten things up a bit and really, really enjoyed this. I could see drinking this one on a very regular basis.

I made a super weak brew of this tea last night because I wanted to get a taste for it before I made a stronger version of it. I really, really liked it. A great note of grapes and sweetness that really tasted delicious in the cold of night! I can’t wait to try a strong version of this.

First brew: completely got distracted by impending storm and let it overbrew. Super bitter. Sad.

Second brew: so, so much better. Tiniest floral taste, and a touch sweet. I think next time a bit of sugar will make this tea absolutely delish!

This tea smells like heaven when you open the bag. The taste wasn’t quite as creamy as I would have liked, but good none-the-less.
