Thursday Tea Time - Good Earth, Good Deal

This week - Good Earth Chai Tea Vanilla

Cost:   $2.99 at Randall's supermarket
Number of teabags:  18
Caffeine:  Yes
Type of tea:  Black
Ingredients:  Black tea, natural flavors, chicory root, cardamom, ginger root, nutmeg, black pepper, cloves, star anise and vanilla extract.
Steeping time:  5 minutes
Add ins:   Just a little splash of Natural Bliss
Fragrance:  Vanilla cinnamon
Opinion:  I so love chai tea but often associate and drink it during the cooler months.  I was surprised to like this "lighter" version right now.  The flavors are still chai-y, but the vanilla and cinnamon make this a very nice and refreshing blend, keeping the chai-ness but losing the heavy spice-ness.  The vanilla is light and not artificial.  I can see drinking this iced, too, even without sugar.   Or as a iced chai latte.
