Throwback… Tuesday? Had a bad stomach migraine today so I was having horrible nausea/stomach pain/GI issues all day. Still am, really. So I haven’t managed to get to my teabox tea yet, even though I coldbrewed a big mason jar of it yesterday, because I just wanted nice soothing mint on my stomach. This tea is fabulous on a sore throat, but I’ve found it does help settle my stomach a bit if I sip on it slowly. The pain tends to return when the attack is bad, but a little more slow sippage tends to bring back some temporary relief. I’m down to one last serving and not sure how I’ll manage once it’s gone! I do have some other mint teas, but I just really find this one so tasty and soothing… I love the gentle flavor the clove and licorice root bring. I just can’t justify wasting the money on shipping to restock a single tea, and while I’m on hiatus I just am not going to make a bulk order, so I’ll have to do without for a little while, I guess. But I really do love this tea. Tasty and functional! Bumping up my rating on this one… it may be a basic blend, but the balance is great, it’s good warm, tepid, and iced, and the “soother” in the name is just so spot on!
Flavors: Clove, Licorice, Mint, Smooth, Sweet
I love this stuff, it’s my sore-throat-cold-blech-nauseau-ugh go-to.
I think the main problem is that I tried this at the same time as Evening in Missoula, which just blew this one away. But I didn’t leave a numerical review in case the comparison made my judgment unfair!
I like Evening in Missoula too. For me, one is definitely a “sick tea” for me, the other is just a nice evening herbal. :-)
