Yeah, Meghann M I almost want to curse you for sending me this. I’ve avoided Teavana pretty well so far, but I think this is the tea that will make me cave. I don’t even like coconut that much! But this just has this rich, soft, well-blended flavor; I like the nuttiness the rooibos adds, and appreciate that it lowers the caffeine content a little too. 2nd steep is weaker but drinkable, especially if you add a little more plain black tea or rooibos to give it some heft.
This is aptly named: it’s like a gentler (less spicy, less sweet) warm version of Thai Iced tea (which I also adore). I will likely be buying more once this bag runs out.
ETA: Does anyone know for certain whether this has natural/artificial flavorings (beyond the coconut, vanilla, and almond pieces listed?) I’m skeptical that it doesn’t, and the Teavana webpage isn’t really clear – just something I like to take into account in ratings.

This tea makes an awesome thai iced tea. I brew it strong, chill, and then when I serve it, i top it with some sweetened condensed milk. SO GOOD, and so much like a thai restaurant’s iced tea that I don’t need to stop at a thai restaurant anymore to “just get an iced tea” because I’m craving one.
