Opinion: If I were to bet before trying these, I would and did think the Raspberry Passion would have been the favorite over the Vanilla Spice. The Raspberry Passion smelled terrific when I opened the tea bag, but blundered into nothing after brewing. No, more like a hmmm/odd nose crinkle. I didn't taste raspberry nor passion for that matter at all. Now the Vanilla Spice was like a comforting mug of cinnamon toast. With a kick. In the behind I needed for my mid-afternoon slump. Comfortably energized without buzzing crazy.
Rating: Vanilla Spice - 4, Raspberry Passion - 1 (because it gave me a $2 coupon, which I will use to buy another box of Vanilla Spice!
