The WORST Earl Grey I have EVER HAD bar NONE!!! I can’t even describe the heinous taste bud rape that occurred when I tried to drink this stuff OMG. It didn’t even taste like Earl Grey!
I gave the box away to someone I didn’t particularly like.

This was my first ever Earl Grey Lavender experience. I loved it, but quickly moved up to a lose tea. Great for those who want to try out Earl Grey with Lavender. If I could get it locally, I’d buy a box to keep on hand for if I travel… As Earl Grey – especially with Lavender now – is my all time favorite tea of teas.

The first time I had this tea I was about 18 – this was a very long time ago lol. I drank it by mistake while visiting an Aunt, and loved it! When she told me what it was I logged it to memory and went home and bought my first box. Thus began my love affair with Sleepytime tea.
No other bedtime tea comes close!

I’ve been drinking this tea for YEARS. It’s probably my all time favorite mint tea. I’ve tried loose leaf mint teas, and mint teas from other companies, but I always come back to this one. Omg it’s just perfect. Not too minty, smooth, great with milk or without. Makes a great cup of mint iced tea too! Who cares if it’s in a bag!

I bought this by mistake, thinking it was the Stash blend (the boxes are both yellow) what a huge disappointment!
WAAY too lemony. Almost tastes like hot lemonade. Where is the ginger?

Yuck.

My favorite Lemon Ginger tea EVER. My husband calls this “stinky tea”. It smells very strong and potent. The flavor has a bite and is really zippy on your tongue. It has a warm feeling/aftertaste in your throat too. If you don’t like the warmth of ginger you won’t like this tea, but if you are a fan of ginger you will probably love it. Just enough lemon without being too lemony.
I drink it black with a touch of honey.

I bought this tea because I’m a huge Earl Grey fan and thought I would like to try the “sister” tea. I find this tea to be “meh”. I’ve brewed it a couple times, thinking I would learn to appreciate it, but nope. Still “meh”. Not great, doesn’t totally suck. I would say it’s too light, not enough body, and too heavy on the lemony flavor.

Another standard tea in my pantry! I drink this tea all Winter long. It’s spicy from the ginger and refreshing thanks to the mint. Great when you have a tummy ache or when you need a zippy warm up. I love it all times of the day, in the morning with a bagel, or at night on the couch after dinner. PLUS you can get it at Panera!

With the bagged tea I don’t worry about the steeping time and just leave the bag in the cup/mug and drink it down as the tea cools. If I brew it loose by the pot I don’t steep longer than 6 minutes or so.

Sometimes I sweeten with honey, sometimes with sugar and sometimes not at all depending on my mood. It’s good all three ways.

This is the perfect Ginger Peach tea. I don’t think anything else comes close and I’ve tried every ginger peach blend I can get my hands on. I drink this all Summer long both hot and iced and it’s one that my pantry is never out of! I love that I can get it at Panera!

If you’re drinking the bagged version (say if you get it at Panera) there is no need to worry about a steep time. I’ve left the bag in, and just drank the tea even as it cooled. You can not ruin this tea no matter what you do to it!

I love this tea! It smells heavenly and brews up a nice fruity light cup of tea. I wish it was more available locally. I used to be able to get it at Target but no more. I have ordered it online because I like it so much, but tend to nurse the box along so I don’t run out.

It’s a bagged tea, so I don’t really worry about oversteeping. I just leave the bag in the mug. I don’t even use a teacup for this one.
