Egyptian Licorice Mint from Yogi Tea
34

Sickeningly sweet. I enjoy the spicy and sweet notes of Yogi Detox, and was hoping that this herbal tea would be a nice alternative. Unfortunately, I think they went overboard with the Stevia Leaf. I feel like it coats my mouth with each sip. That being said, I am drinking it cold, so it might be more palatable when hot.

UPDATE: Tried it hot. Much more tolerable. Improved my score.

I like how it improved your score but it’s still a 34. LOL.

This blend sounds like everything I hate all rolled into one: licorice AND stevia. Ick ick ick. I’ve yet to find a tea blend that uses stevia to where it’s not annoying.

It’s really not something I’d repurchase! I feel like the fact that I feel compelled to finish it means that score will stay low. LOL Drinking this down is punishment enough for my harsh judgment of it.

I’d never tried stevia and this was a bizarre introduction.
