Since we have snow today! I choose something with a little spring in it, after all this is the first full day of spring. This tea has a great balance between the black, the peach and the ginger. This is the last of this tin in my cupboard. I seem to have moved on to Ceylons at the moment, but I really do like this tea.
Finished up my Traveler’s Tin today by brewing the last 2 bags at one time (a good tip from the first tasting note on this tea’s page. It makes it tolerable. I just didn’t like it brewed with one bag.
Drinking iced from my Lock & Lock bottle.
And the good part is that I now have the cute little travel tin to reuse. I was able to peel the labels off pretty cleanly, and I think some rubbing alcohol might clean the little bit of goo that’s left so I can make my own labels for it, and try carrying some loose tea in it. Might have to air out a bit first – the tin smells of ginger, which is odd since I could never detect it in the brewed tea!
Definitely more peach than ginger. You realize the ginger is there if you compare it with other peach flavored tea without ginger, but it can be slightly difficult to single it out. Good with honey (I think honey is better than sugar for this one), though you don’t need it. Pretty good.
This is the perfect Ginger Peach tea. I don’t think anything else comes close and I’ve tried every ginger peach blend I can get my hands on. I drink this all Summer long both hot and iced and it’s one that my pantry is never out of! I love that I can get it at Panera!
If you’re drinking the bagged version (say if you get it at Panera) there is no need to worry about a steep time. I’ve left the bag in, and just drank the tea even as it cooled. You can not ruin this tea no matter what you do to it!
this tea was womp-womp :(
i’d been eyeing the ginger peach for some time. i’m a big fan of peach tea and really like the taste of ginger. i prefer a spicier tea, so i thought this’d be a good match. to be honest, it was actually kind of nasty. i probably steeped it a little too long, but i’m not sure it would have been much better with less time. the ginger was too strong and the peach almost nonexistent. it was almost undrinkable. it became tolerable after i added a ridiculous amount of sugar.
overall, i was really disappointed with this tea. i plan on giving it another try with less steep time. i’m thinking the white version might be a better blend than the black.
