I think this is being discontinued as I got it on 50% off sale, no return stamped from Teavana.
I saw such positive reviews on Steepster I decided to try it.
I think I should have chosen mild not medium.

Agreed, I think mild would probably of have been a better choice. I can’t seem to get that acai blueberry one right. It’s always so tarty…
i think the reason i never love greens and whites is they are so finicky – it’s hard to make them right, but when you do they rock
Confirmed that it is discontinued. I wrote to Teavana to ask.
They said that Emerald Bamboo Forest is “quite similar” — which is interesting considering it doesn’t contain any berries.

i HATE when they “re-work” a recipe and say it’s similar, it never it! well that and mom is still bitter over the loss of mrs. earl grey but we might have that fixed soon
