I did not buy this tea for the flavour; I bought it for the milk thistle (which has a lot of health benefits)

When I opened this, it smelled like cardboard or play-do? However, once steeped, it does not taste that bad! It tastes like a sugar cookie (but with no sweetness). I enjoyed this one, and I look forward to repurchasing it solely because of the milk thistle.

However, if this tea had no milk thistle in it, and this was just based on taste, I would not repurchase it.

Flavors: Cookie, Medicinal

It’s been a while since I had the Celestial Seasonings holiday teas, but this used to be my favorite one. I may need to pick some up if I see them at the grocery store… ;)

Same! I’ve been getting more into loose leaf teas recently, but honestly, Celestial teas are awesome! Haha. And for sure! :) I’m so glad you liked this one and I hope you have the chance to pick it up the grocery store when you get the chance.

Neither of the grocery stores I went to over the weekend seemed to have these yet… I did pick up one fall Stash tea though. ;)

Hello everyone!

So, how did I get into tea? I think I have always had a fascination with tea. But I really got obsessed with it after watching Avatar: The Last Airbender. I loved how Uncle Iroh used tea as a way to both practice self-care and connect with others.

I aspire to do the same through my tea endeavours.

My Favourite Canadian Small Tea Businesses: (Thus far! As I explore new tea brands, I am sure this list will grow)

Dessert by Deb
The Tea Haus
The Chai Brewing Company

My Preferred Preparation:
For black teas, I prefer the stove-top method with milk and sugar. For all other teas and herbal infusions, I usually prefer having them hot without any add-ins. However, I do like an occasional iced tea! Especially for some fruity or floral blends.

My Tea Preferences:
I enjoy flavoured teas more than straight teas; however, I do have a soft spot for traditional green or oolong teas.

Favourite Flavours:
- Masala chai (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and other warming spices!)
- Cream
- Mint
- Tropical fruit (lychee, mango, pineapple)
- Maple 
- Orange
- Roasted/smokey
- Caramel
- Floral (especially jasmine)
- Honey
- Nuts (hazelnut, almond)
- Sweet potato
- Fall fruits (apples, cranberries)
- Earl Grey
- Vanilla bean

Least Liked Flavours:
- Anything that tastes too artificial (especially vanilla or chocolate!)

- Tart (too much hibiscus)

- Ginseng

- Guarana powder 

- Coconut oil (or oily teas)

- Red rooibos
