drank Vanilla Chai by Bigelow
7 tasting notes

They have this in the cafeteria sometimes at school, which was where I first found it. It’s pretty tasty, especially with a bit of creamer or milk and maybe a cookie, although it doesn’t have quite as good flavor as some of the other vanilla chais I’ve had.

I like vanilla flavored teas for some reason and Bigelow Vanilla Caramel is one of my favorites with french vanilla creamer. Mm. (And good for my student budget, too.)

drank Earl Grey by Bigelow

This is an okay Earl Grey. It’s a tad bitter and not in the good way. Delicious aroma though. I dare say it smells better than it tastes, but all in all a fair cup for a rainy midafternoon. Nothing to ponder life in. ^_~

I usually detest bagged tea, and this is not an exception, but I found a few bags of it laying around and decided to try it iced. Quite…different.

I made a pot of this last night, and then drank the remainder after my first cup iced. Light and refreshing.

Waaay too sweet for me. The chai is really light and the vanilla v. overpowering. Maybe okay for a desert tea, but I don’t like it.

This is my go-to tea when I’m sick and need something warm and minty to feel better.

I like green tea and I like pomegranates and pomegranate flavored things but this tea just taste weird to me. Not a fan.

I really like black tea but I am not a big fan of adding milk and sugar – this tea is nice when I am in a mood for a something a bit sweet.

Backlogging Thursday 7/1:

Had this at a restaurant with breakfast this morning. It was the only non-herbal tea they had. I have had this kind before. It’s pretty much your standard green tea. I enjoyed it.

Bigelow Tea

Glad you enjoyed your only choice!

A decent black tea, as far as bag teas go. Good with soy milk.

I came across this quite by luck. I normally stay away from bagged tea unless that’s my only choice for tea. I saw this in my local airport while waiting for my fight and really wanted tea. I got a cup of hot water from the flight attendent and steeped it for 5 min. No milk (I just didn’t want to make a mess in flight), no sweetener. It was really good! I won’t buy it otherwise, but I will definitely look for it next time I’m in an airport and want chai.

drank Eggnogg'n by Bigelow
2891 tasting notes

Can’t believe this is my first cup of Eggnogg’n for the season, but it is appropriate, as I am contentedly parked in my armchair back in my hobbit hole after an afternoon of Battling Five Armies with my guys. Have you seen it yet?

Green/black combos are sometimes a little tricky to steep, but this one does just fine with water just off the boil and a shorter steep time. Lovely cinnamon-nutmeggy goodness. A fitting bag for tea at Bag End.

Merry Christmas, friends. May Joy find you, wherever you are.

Storm looming; seasonal grinchies kicking in about a month early—-NEED THIS!
Oversteeped and the green tea in here is pouting a little, but the eggnoggity goodness is still there.

CelebriTEA

Ok, I LOVE Creamy Eggnog from Butikit, but just say I am out and Jonesin
for some eggnog tea…is this a good “stand in” in an emergency?

CelebriTEA

Butiki…sometimes I spell dyslexic :-)

gmathis

I haven’t tried the Butiki, but I will venture that it’s a plausible substitute. Nice with milk, but sweet and cinna-vanilly on its own; relatively easy to hunt down at chain groceries; inexpensive.

CelebriTEA

I am going to look for it.
I love the Butiki version with a spot of cream.
Sometimes it is so nice to have these friendly, inexpensive versions available ;-)

Used to be I’d have to drive clear across the state (or at least a good way out of town) to find this fun and frolicky holiday-season-only tea. Couple of places have it locally now and I’m tickled to death.

There are other vanilla/cinnamon teas that may come kinda-sorta close to this one (thinking about Trader Joe’s with the little lemur on the box) but this is my absolute favorite when it comes to accurately catching the egg-sence of eggnog.

Straight up at my desk, but infinitely better with a dollop of evaporated milk.

Another local-store serendipity; this is rarely in stock here!

If you did a side-by side taste test with real bona fide eggnog, I don’t think they’d be very close. Truthfully, this reminds me more of iced sugar cookies. (And what’s wrong with that?) Sweet, pleasant, just a hint of spice, great with milk; and before you know it, there I am staring at an empty tumbler and wishing I’d brought another bag with me.

I found some! I found some! Had to drive clear across the state to do it, but I snagged some in time for Christmas! Sweet and nutmeggy, better with milk. Thank you, Dierberg’s!

I love it with milk. HARD to find in grocery stores, though…had to special order.
