193 Tasting Notes
Santa left this tea in our 3 year olds stocking… so she wanted to make some today. Her words after tasting…“I like this one!” We had a half a pot of this between us while playing with Polly Pockets. (oh the little pieces are going to drive me nutty!!!)
This is right on with the bubble gum taste, not one I would drink on a regular basis but great for my daughter! (She would probably drink this one daily and the strawberry pie is her other favorite.)
Glad to finally see a review of this one. Our little one really LOVES this tea, and I have to confess, I personally enjoy it as an iced tea myself.
I think I am going to order a pouch of it with my next order, because my little one said she’d like to try it.
Good idea! I will try it iced!
Be warned, it’s a bit addictive as an iced tea. I know it probably sounds crazy to a lot of people, but there is something about iced liquid bubblegum that really hits the spot. (at least for me, it really does.)
Awww! Oh, for a little one to play tea party with (17-year-old gamers generally balk at the idea of sitting down with mommy and fussy china cups). Oh, well, maybe grandchildren some decade…
@52teas, make an ice cream out of this?:)
I know I know I am a day late but better late than never right?! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! Our day as you can imagine with a 3 year old and a 1 year old was CrAzY! The past two days have been a bit of a whirlwind! I did open the sample pack on Christmas morning but then got sidetracked and never got to make it and then we were off to my in laws the remainder of the day. So I am enjoying this today in anticipation of the a Big snowstorm that is supposed to hit us this afternoon (i think). This is nicely spiced and I can taste the gingerbread…yummy! I added a little rock sugar and that complimented this cup nicely! Now off to the grocery store for bread, eggs and milk LOL!
Adding this in- my kitchen smells absolutely wonderful after making this tea!!!! I am bumping up the rating on this tea because I am wanting more and am going to try resteeping. But I am wishing I had more in my sampler. Might have to place an order for this one.
I’m in South Jersey – looks like we are getting the same storm! 14 inches they say! I hadn’t listened to the news for days but I looked out the window this morning and saw that steel grey sky and said “I think it’s going to snow!” I checked the weather report and sure enough – 100% “chance” – yikes! I went to my corner store and stocked up on cozy, easy to prepare foods (we are both still sick!) to get us through the next few days. The people in the store said that they had been to WaWa and the Supermarket and they were so mobbed they decided to turn around and try their luck with the corner store!
Yes we are about an hour from Philadelphia, not going to get as much as you but I don’t know that they are really sure what we are going to end up with. The report keeps changing. I think we are in the 6-12in range currently! It is fine with me I have no where to go or be until Tuesday afternoon and I have PLENTY of tea :) Glad you are feeling better!
My first Talbott Tea ever! My order arrived yesterday (Merry Christmas to me :) and I saved it to try today! This is the first one I picked… I am typically not a rooibos fan but have been broadening my tea cupboard to include a few. I am enjoying this… nice lemon flavor and the vanilla gives the meringue taste! Refreshing and relaxing! The relaxing is just what I need too after having my side over today for Christmas… I am exhausted! The kids are crazy hyper too!
I am not going to rate this tea because I absolutely hate raisins and I feel I can not give this tea a fair rating due to the raisins. This was part of the 12 Teas of Christmas Sampler I am glad I had the chance to try a small amount of it and think it would be great for someone who likes cinnamon raisin toast.
LOVE this tea!! I received my order in three days… amazingly fast! I love the vanilla in this tea, tastes like REAL vanilla not the imitation vanilla like some wanna be vanilla teas! And this is DECAF!!! Completely unbelievable! I just ordered a tin of 20 sachets and am already contemplating just ordering the pound of loose tea :) I will definitely be going through this tin quickly! I think this tea is going to be a new “constant” in my tea cupboard!
I love vanilla! I might give this a try one day :)
He hee! Join the one pounders club :) Me and ashmanra both order one pound bags of this and Queen Catherine. I think I may order a one pounder of Earl Grey Supreme too.
Oy, so jealous! I’ve waited 6 days for them to even ship my order, which they haven’t done yet… Plus two weeks for it to get to Canada, if they ever send it. I want my pound!
I am now wishing I would have added this to my last Harney order (I just placed the other day) I will have to add this to the next one! I am emjoying the cranberry taste! My mom had ordered this one and I swiped some of it while at her house :)
On a side note I am making cranberry sausage for supper tonight with mashed potatoes and to stay in the “cranberry theme” I made a cup of this and mixed it in with the mashed potatoes…. DELICIOUS!
