I was getting tired of Lipton becoming the only tea option at the office. My boss wouldn’t allow me to order any other tea on the account, “Lipton is familiar,” so I took it into my own hands to bring a box of Tetley into the office. It has become a crowd favorite! Now, there are two reasons why I purchased a box of teabags for the team. 1. I’ve tried loose leaf options, and it was a bit complex for most non-tea heads working there. That’s fair; and 2. I wanted a step up from Lipton, but easy for the team to make a cup at work.
What inspired this specific tea was the accidental dive into How to make English cups of tea videos that the YT algorithm sent my way. There was a reviewer who tasted plenty of tea bags that were offered, and Tetley was one of the top 3 or 4. I let curiosity win, and my local Walmart had one box left! Is it the best tea? Not by a longshot, but there’s something familiar in brewing this tea.

This was a favorite of Ashman long ago, recommended to use in our pre-loose leaf days by a British woman who said it was the closest thing she had found here to what she drank in England.

It’s not bad! I wouldn’t drink it on the daily, but it’s a good tea for the 1-2 office days. It’s definitely one BIG step up from what they had.
