One of the things I love about Joy’s Teaspoon is that their teas never have an artificial taste to them, as so many flavored teas do. This herbal teasan was no exception to that rule. It was incredibly sweet and refreshing. The flavor was citrusy and reminded me very much of a grapefruit covered in sugar but without the usual acidity. I almost found myself wishing that it did have a bit of pucker to it. The pineapple, papaya mango added a great tropical touch. I was worried that the recommended steep time was a little long but it came out just right. I could tell that this would make an awesome iced tea in the summer. I would definitely recommend this tea.
