Thursday Tea Time


This week - Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf Apricot Ceylon
Cost: $8.20
Number of teabags: 20
Caffeine: Yes
Type of tea: Black
Steeping time: 5 minutes
Mix ins: Both ways - straight and with vanilla powder
Teabag fragrance: Definitely deliciously apricot
Ingredients: Ceylon black tea, marigold flower, natural and artificial flavorings.
Taste: Faint apricot flavor
Opinion: Disappointed. I wanted to like this - I love apricots! You can even see the slices of apricots in the teabag. I tried it hot with the vanilla powder and iced - with double teabags for extra oomph. What you smell isn't what you long for in the taste. Compared to their peach teas, which are strongly peachy-keen, this one's a bit wimpy.
Rating: 2.5
