Green Tea with Ginseng & Honey

Backlog: I got a box of this from an aunt for my birthday. She knows I’m a tea lover, so she gets me some different bagged teas on occasion. I have had the canned drink before, but try to avoid things like that in general so I don’t remember it very well. This morning I steeped up a hot mug of this with breakfast, and I was surprised. It was very mild and unassuming, unlikely to force itself on you as a favourite but definitely a drinkable bagged green tea. I am not much for iced tea, but I am going to do some up iced at some point and see how I feel about that. It’s one of those teas that I don’t see myself reaching for, but would be nice to have kicking around at work or for making the odd iced tea if I feel like it. Far better than the Tetley bagged greens I have had before.

I absolutely love this in the summer as an iced tea! Very light and refreshing taste! The mandarin orange version makes a great iced drink too!

My sweetheart told me that a friend of him drinks four cans of it a day because, first, it tastes really good and, second, you get all the vitamins C you need by doing it. Personnally, I think that this drink is very refreshing. The ginseng and the honey together give an aftertaste of tobacco, but it’s perfect like that! And all above this, my kitsch side, the design with the blossoms is really cute!
