Honey Lemon Tea

I somehow left my loose tea at home (SIGH) so I had to resort to what they have in the school cafeteria. I chose this one as my throat is still a bit sore (wasn’t on steepster for two days) rating will come when it cools down a bit.

I got addicted to this tea last year in my residence!
It’s just so good and it’s such a good way to enjoy a warm cup of tea without feeling like I’m going over my daily caffeine limit.

It tastes very good I think, and the fact that the lemony taste is strong is a big plus for me. And there is a mild sweetness that lingers with the freshness of the lemons that just makes this tea so much better. I had the tea with a sweetner for the first time today – and it gets even better!!!

The only bad thing is, I can’t find it ANYWHERE (in boxes) in Toronto… The only option I have is to order 6 boxes of it – and while I do love this tea… I don’t think I need 120 bags of the stuff. not yet anyway ;)

I was excited to try this tea because I thought Honey and Lemon Tea would taste great. However, I found it a letdown… I had trouble tasting the honey flavor and in general the combination of flavors didn’t go together that well. I did finish the cup of tea but I didn’t enjoy it very much.

I went out for dinner tonight and this was the tea I received when I asked if they had lemon tea. I wasn’t too impressed with it. Not bad but not great either. I can taste the lemon and the honey flavours but it’s artificial and sharp tasting and not what I would call smooth. This tea would do in a pinch but it wouldn’t be a tea I would ever buy for home use.

Blech. Smells strongly herbal and woodsy, and all I ever taste is sharp lemon. It came with a gift basket, and I just want to finish off the remaining bags. I don’t have it in me to toss tea out, even if it’s awful.
