Even my husband, who is not a fan of mangos, enjoys this fruity, sweet, black tea. Delicious either hot or iced, it’s got a fantastic smell to it and a gentle sweetness, thanks to the mango.
Out of all the teas I drink, this is the one I buy most frequently. It’s [...]

Fruit teas, more accurately known as tisanes, don’t actually contain any tea leaves, and therefore, are non-caffeinated. Basically composed of dried fruits and herbs, these varieties offer a delicious alternative to traditional teas.
Berry Berry, as the name implies, is made up mostly of dried blueberries and saskatoons. It steeps to a [...]

I often find green teas too bitter, or having too strong of a ‘raw’ tea flavour, which is not my preference. However, when I came across raspberry flavoured green tea I decided to give it a try. I really want to like and enjoy green tea, so experimenting with several varieties would [...]

I adore chocolate, and I like mint. I especially like chocolate and mint together. After Eight’s used to be one of my favourite treats! This tea smells just like them, and so I was very excited to taste it for the first time.
I wasn’t disappointed. While no flavour of black [...]

I was initially unsure how I would like this tea when I bought it. I am not generally a fan of anything orange-flavoured, except for orange juice or oranges themselves. It smelled really palatable anyway, so I bought some and figured I would just give it away as a gift if [...]

I bought this tea as a gift, and then forgot to give it to the intended recipient. After it languished in my cupboard for a year and a half, unopened, I finally decided to just drink it myself.
The name is highly appropriate, since this tea makes me think [...]

White tea tends to fall on the more expensive side, for reasons that are not totally clear to me. However, finding varieties at affordable prices is possible if you keep an eye out.
This particular white tea has strong fruity hints and a really nice subtle sweetness when brewed. The color of the [...]

The PC Glass Teapot with stainless steel infuser is one of the nicest and most practical teapots I’ve seen. It’s clear glass, which I love for making beautiful flowering teas. It has a stainless steel infuser, which means no discoloration, which is common with plastic infusers. Plus it’s a nice shape [...]

This wonderful black tea smells AMAZING! The strong, sweet coconut aroma immediately reminded me of the beach, and vacation. If you do not love coconut, this tea is not for you.
Mild, yet flavourful, I find that this tea helps me unwind after a long day. The flavour is simple, with noticeable hints of the coconut, [...]
