Note: This is a review of the loose leaf and not bagged.

The loose leaf does not contain cinnamon like the bagged variety does. This is a very noticeable difference which I did not realize until I took my first sip.

The bagged Orange Spice has been a staple of mine for over a decade. I was so excited when I realized it was available in loose leaf. I was very disappointed.

Light, fruity, sweet, with just a small hint of coconut.
A nice light tea that seems to want to demand being iced on a hot summer afternoon while relaxing in the shade.

This smells beautiful, looks beautiful, and even tastes beautiful.
So relaxing during a hectic day at work.

It has, however, one downside. The rose petals tend to like to glue themselves to the sides of my infuser, making it a pain to clean out. :)

Flavors: Floral, Orange Zest

Preparation
Boiling 5 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 10 OZ / 295 ML
