Sweetened with milk, this really tastes like horchata! I taste a lot of warm cinnamon, but something else that combines to make this a super desserty cup. Lovely resteep as well.

TTB sample! Never have I tasted a tea that I would describe as lotiony as strongly as with this tea. It was so lotiony that I gave the cup to someone else. That’s all I tasted.

Gosh, I wonder if someone secretly substituted lotion in place of your tea… Maybe not, the tea was sold by Plum Deluxe, not Maxwell House! ;-)

Fruity chai isn’t my favorite, so this wasn’t going to be a winner. I like milk with my chai, but the acidity from the fruit makes it a little funky. This tastes tart and fruity, but I also taste spices, especially the cardamom. The acidity it a bit harsh in the back of my throat. I don’t love the black base this is on. Still fun to try from the TTB!

There’s something in here that’s really interesting to me. I taste the bright orange along with the ginger and some other spice or baked element. I liked this sweetened with milk. This has become one of my favorite herbals from Deb for sure!

TTB! The peach flavoring was a little chemically for me. It reminds me of maybe an Adagio tea I had years ago. With milk and sugar, it’s still drinkable and reminiscent of peach rings. Not bad, but not something I would seek out. It’s just a little too fake, and I don’t get any cream or much oolong.

drank Fairy Lily by Teabloom

TTB! This was beautiful when it bloomed in the water, though I was unsure if I would enjoy the flavor. I’m happy to say that the flavor was quite nice as well! It also made a super strong resteep. It’s very floral, but the flavor is actually best if you allow it to sit in the fridge for at least 12 hours to mellow. And I kept the initial steep time relatively short as well, knowing my preferences with floral flavors. I didn’t have time to finish my cup before leaving on my three week long trip, so I put the cup in the freezer and enjoyed a lovely tea popsicle yesterday!

TTB! I removed as many rose petals as I could since I’m not a huge rose fan, and I’m glad I did because this ended up pretty enjoyable! I’m drinking this cold, and it’s a little fruity and floral on quite a smooth green base. The main flavor is still rose, so I wouldn’t prefer much more of this.

I hate this kind of tea ha ha, pretending to be cherry blossom but actually candy cherry and rose. Boo! XD

TTB! This tastes a bit floral. It’s tasty cold with a smooth black base. I like it sweetened with milk. It doesn’t really stand out, but it was enjoyable enough!

drank Pure Chamomile by Twinings

Our hotel in London gave us free cheese and tea every night, and we always chose this one! It was relaxing to wind down with some warm chamomile with oat milk. This doesn’t get good reviews, but I found it to be lovely! Just what you expect from a chamomile.

This is so great. The green tea is lovely. The pear flavor is fresh and pleasant. The spices are well-rounded and super tasty. I’m drinking this cold, and it’s juicy and wonderful.

Bio

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
