67 Tasting Notes

Second worst tea I’ve ever tasted — hot or iced. It tastes like liquid St. Joseph’s aspirin. Had to throw out the box. Lipton should be ashamed of themselves (if they are capable of shame).

Jillian

Hey this is Lipton we’re talking about! XD

Rena Sherwood

Oh yes… silly me … ;-)

Drinking this was like drinking hot cough syrup. Mom tried to make iced tea from it but had to dump it. It was so bad that I actually wrote to Salada and complained that they should be ashamed to put such crap on the market. They responded with a wad of coupons for all types of Salada tea.

drank Breathe Deep by Yogi Tea

Tastes nasty — especailly for someone who doesn’t like licorice. But it can help soothe clogged sinuses and sore throats. I found it helped ease the pain of sinus headaches while waiting for the Benedryl to kick in.

Honestly, if I tea is supposed to be medicinal I care less about how it tastes (unless it’s REALLY gag-worthy) than how effective it is.

Rena Sherwood

This is medicinal, all right :-)

I was wondering you have any left I would be curious to try it becuase my throat gets dry easy.

Rena Sherwood

Sorry it’s taken me so long to get back to you, Silvermage. Sure — I could send you a couple of bags. They’re individually wrapped. My email is JPWS61@aol.com. It’s best to get a hold of me that way.

drank Lipton Black Tea by Lipton

Only recommended if you’ve been stranded on a desert island for six months, get rescued and the rescuers offer you a cup.

drank Apple Cider by Bigelow

Highly recommended herbal tea, especailly paired with dessert, peanut butter sandwiches or cheese. Individually wrapped, too. I don’t know about you, but I like to sniff the foil pouch after I take the tea bag out and this pouch smelled like Juicy Fruit gum. However, the tea does not taste like Juicy Fruit. I wonder if the “natural flavors” listed include any dandelion and burdock, which make up the core flavorings of Juicy Fruit gum.

I found this in Stash’s Organic assortment. It’s very smooth and not as powerful as Stash Double Bergemeont Earl Grey or even Stash regular Earl Grey. I can’t detect any bitterness usually associated with green tea. I now only drink this tea to reward myself for doing something I’ve been putting off — otherwise I’d probably just spend my days drinking tea and not not doing much else.

I initially avoided this tea, thinking it would be like Celestial Seasoning’s “Blow Your Head Off” Peppermint. But I read Jillian’s suggestion to try this tea. I’m so glad I did. It’s now become one of the daily after dinner teas Mom and I drink. It’s sweet, minty, doesn’t rev you up and soothes the digestive tract. Thanks again, Jillian.

So strong it should be called “Blow Your Head Off With Mint”.

Not a bad trait for a head cold remedy! (That’s about the only time I get mine out.)

Jillian

I definetly prefere Celestial Seasonings’ Candy Cane Lane to this, it’s a lot sweeter and milder for one thing.

Rena Sherwood

Thanks, Jillian. My Mom & I tried Candy Cande Lane after I read your comment and now it’s one of our current faves. :-)

Very good, but you have to plan in advance whenver you are goign to drink this because of the borderline amphetamine affect. However, if you’re constipated, one cup may help gt things moving again. I think this was the tea featured on a “Mad About You” episode.

Jillian

Sounds pretty crazy, although it might be useful around exam time.
