REVIEW

Brewed

  • One of the prettiest brewed teas I have seen. Not all teas once brewed are pleasant to look at. A very light yellow hue and there is a nice blending of the ingredients.

Scent

  • You can smell the ginger and citrus and at this point the tea is very balanced.

Flavor

  • The tea runs on a bit of the acidic since and there is a slight burn to it. I know this is the ginger and the ginger is aided in it’s job by the citrus includ

Sentiments

  • This tea is a wake up call, that ginger will wake you right up! The citrus is mild yet when in your mouth you will feel a bite back like when you bite into a pepper. It’s strong but it feels almost cleansing in your mouth and down your throat.

INGREDIENTS

  • Ginger
  • Lemongrass
  • Lemon Peel
  • Liquorice Root
