I saw this on clearance yesterday so I picked up a box! My first steep was much better than this one! At 4min. the stevia becomes very overpowering. At three minutes I was able to taste more of the spices. I’m not sure this is a great boxed tea, but I’ll have to try it a bit more! I actually think it would be a bit better if the black base was more evident. It would balance out this sweetness a lot.

this stuff was definitely too sweet for me!

I actually poured out this second cup. I guess shorter steep times are a must! And I noticed that the stevia is probably what made me really hate another recent tea.

When it comes to Stevia, less is definitely more!

I’ve done it halvesies with plain black tea and it’s much better.

Thanks for the advice! I’ll try it when I steep it again.
