Trader Joe's Tea Party Set | Lemongrass Rosehip Herbal Infusion and Final Thoughts

9:58 AM

Here is our final installment of the review of Trader Joe's Tea Party Set!(See the others linked here: Bergamot Flavored Tea, Vanilla & Rooibos Red Tea, Moringa Matcha Tea, Raspberry Flavored Black Tea, and Calming Herbal Tea Infusion). I will share my final thoughts on the set at the end.

This tea is a very light brew. I don't know about you, but I find light brews to be so gorgeous -- probably because they stray from the normal brown/amber colored brew. I was confused by the taste at first, I'll be honest. On the first brew, I likened it to Pez candies, but not in an unappealing way. On the second and third brews, though, I didn't taste the candy-like quality as much as the subtle citrus and floral notes, which were quite pleasant albeit subtle.
This tea contains lemon grass and rosehip shells (duh). There is also apple pieces for subtle sweetness and citric acid to enhance the sour taste. This also has natural flavors, which is probably where I was getting that initial hint of Pez candy from. Overall, this was a pleasant tea, but nothing I would write home about. I'll give it a moderate 6.5/10.

Overall, my favorites in this set were the Calming Herbal Tea Infusion (10/10), and Vanilla Rooibos (10/10)
In the middle were Matcha Moringa (8.5/10) and Bergamot Flavored Black (7.75/10)
Least favorites were this one (Lemongrass Rosehip), and the Raspberry Flavored Black Tea (5/10).

I would say, this set is worth the purchase, mainly for the Calming Herbal Tea, Vanilla Rooibos, and Matcha Moringa. I was very impressed by those. However, I wouldn't say that this is a must buy as the last three were just alright. They weren't unpleasant, but they weren't spectacular, either. Worth the price, though, for sure.

Happy Tea Drinking,

Tiny Tea Things

As and owner of over 70 varieties of tea, I decided that it was about time I started reviewing them. My collection of tea evolved as a method of coping through the many college struggles… specifically, starting after Freshmen year. Not only do I want to share my favorite (and not favorite) teas with you, I also would love another reason to buy and drink more teas.
