To Life

Rooibos White Blend by Teavana

A toast to life, this delightfully fruity tea takes time out to celebrate with a clean, clear combination of sweet strawberry, delicate jasmine, zesty orange peel and savory rhubarb. A purely pleasure-filled tea created as a health-inspired blend with the best and the brightest Silver Needle tea leaves featuring soothing undertones of Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Pearls and refreshing Rooibos Tropica. SUPERFRUIT ENHANCED

Light fruity infusion with jasmine undertones

Another one:)
Meh. It is an ok tea. The taste kind of reminds me of Chateau Blanc, though (Least at the moment.) It tastes better then that one. Would I get this again? At this time I am leaning towards ‘no.’ But as always I could change my mind.

I’ve been gone. New laptop. No Steepster icon. Just wasn’t one of the things I was clicking every five seconds :)

I like this tea, but the jasmine isn’t an undertone. It’s pretty strong. The strawberry is very nice and it’s fruity and floral. It’s a nice white tea.

This is one of my all-time favorite teas. The jasmine does come through well, but it is equally matched by a fruity essence (no single fruit dominates). Having read the list of ingredients, I never would have thought it would all blend together so very nicely, but it does :)

This is very similar to Cancer Fighting Tea by the Georgia Tea Company (maybe identical?)

To Life / Moroccan Mint

Not a big fan of the Moroccan mint (trying to use it up) Mixing with “To Life” makes it more palatable ;-)

One of my all-time favorites! It’s got the Silver Needle in it, so it’s super smooth, and the strong jasmine that I love. Very mild and good for bedtime, and it’s got white tea in it too, so I drink this constantly. :)

The first few sips were fantastic, if a bit much. I suppose I used too much again, whoops! But still pretty good, and calming enough for bed.

Ah…I’m honestly not sure what I did here. Normally this is one of my favorites. It just doesn’t taste right. I may have overbrewed it, because it tastes a little burnt. It’s still pretty good, but…eh?

this tea is pretty….weird. i cant really describe it. like sometimes i want to say its mundane and just an average jasmine/ flowery tea, but certainly not a bad one. also, the jasmine is pretty strong and present. but then other times i love it and its uniquely sweet and light and the florals are extra present and vibrant. when its like the second description, its great. the notes are jasmine flower and lavender and sweet strawberries. with a slight tastes of mango or pineapple…? anyone else get that? anyway its so unique when all the flavours come out but the brewing is so inconsistent that its hard to pin a rating or description. i would recommend buying it regardless because its a good jasmine tea and sometimes when the brewing is just right, its perfection. Water needs to be pretty hot for this one. i would say about 200 F. and then brew for about 2-3 mintues. i wouldnt go over 3 or it gets extra bitter. its great to mix with Body+Mind when its cold out or Pineapple Kona Pop for a nice iced tea.

Often I use other teas as I try and stay faithful to organic. But, Teavanna had me with a few of their teas. To Life is a staple that I enjoy quite a bit. But, I am a jasmine pearls fan – thus, I like quite a strong dose of jasmine in my tea. What I’ve found is that this tea actually improves as you go through rounds two and three of the tea leaves. At times, that is the opposite, but I feel it must need a bit of extra steeping to pull the flavor fully from the mix of berries, jasmine and leaves. I love it.

Love this stuff! I get it every time I order from Teavana. The jasmine is my favorite aspect, and I always love white and green tea together.
