Steep time 3:30 max add sugar and milk- yummy! Like to use this in place of my plain morning black to shake things up a bit in the am. I’m such a rebel :)

This is a pleasant surprise! I didn’t think I’d like this because the lemon would be overpowering, but it’s perfect! A great balance of flavor. I’m really enjoying these zingers lately!

Fixed this tonight since I really wanted CS’s Peppermint, but was out. Had never tried this before and had a couple of bags lying around from a hotel visit. This is a really yummy way to do a mint tea. This may become my new favorite mint!

Finished this box in record time! As a regular drinker of CS Morning Thunder, I can say this blows MT out of the water. Sorry CS! Focus is a smooth, sophisticated blend of black tea and mate. The additional flavors added really give it such a good flavor. Will buy again soon!

Revisited this tea for the first time in forever while on vacation. You know, Bigelow is just good and consistent. I really enjoyed my tea these past few mornings.

I’ve reviewed this before, but now it tastes yucky! Especially when I’ve gotten used to Stash’s Earl Grey. This Twining’s version made me sick to my stomach yesterday for some reason:(

The only Earl Grey I will drink lately! Really wish Stash would start distributing on a larger scale on the east coast- it’s so hit or miss and drives me crazy…but it is really good bagged tea!

After much trial and error with teas containing hibiscus, I finally tried one that is not only tolerable but manages to actually taste good! Yesterday I made a pitcher of iced Red Zinger and ended up finishing the whole thing- I was well hydrated, to say the least! I didn’t add any sugar- it’s just sweet enough on it’s own for me but the directions say you can add it after steeping and before you add the cold water. I made another pitcher of it to have with dinner tonight and even the kids like it, which is nice. This would be awesome to have in a container at the beach in the cooler. If you don’t like it hot, try it iced and you may be pleasantly surprised!

Not bad, but hibiscus is a buzz kill for me, I’ve discovered. Will be sharing this at work in an effort to use up.

In variety pack heaven here, so lots of yummy tastings today:) This is another great flavored black. 3 minutes to perfection, natural orange spice flavor. This is in the same taste realm as Constant Comment but seems less bitter, and more well rounded flavor- wise.

One of my favorites from Stash. They seem to do flavored black tea very well, in my humble opinion. Very “fresh”, non artificial peach flavoring. Wins hands down over Ginger Peach by Republic of Tea.

Finally found this in a local store. Very good, probably will lower steep time by a minute next time.

Yea, this is now officially my morning cuppa. Because sometimes you just want good, plain tea.

Had this for the past two mornings at work. Easy since I don’t have to add anything to it. Tastes good too!

Yuck! I can’t believe it, a Mighty Leaf I don’t like. Had to dump this one!

Two cups this morning first thing. Take my daughter to preschool for her first full day then come home to enjoy one of my last lazy mornings before I start work tomorrow. Third cup with a buttery english muffin and some Bible reading. All good things.

My green tea of the day. One tea bag steeped twice= two yummy cups. I suppose today I’m logging almost every cup I drink! I’m starting back to work tomorrow after three lucky years off with my kids and I guess I’m a little nervous. Nothing like drinking and logging teas all day for the distraction!

Had a cup this afternoon after lunch. Used to be one of my favorites but now it’s just not that great. Still drinkable, although by the last bit I was like “uggh”! Perhaps I’ll make this iced and see how it goes. Good way to use up tea bags, that’s for sure!

Had this again today on the go in a travel mug. Still wonderful, but with the mug top on I missed out on the wonderful aroma. Starting to realize now that tea really can be such a full sensory experience!
