So I got some Orange Spice tea since I hear so many people talking about it. I wasn't even sure it was an actual thing, since when I was working at a coffee shop and people asked for it, I would say that we didn't have it and they would take the orange pekoe decaf (not the red rose which is the same stuff). I assumed they had the name wrong.
|
And...? What about it? Have you tried it yet? XD
|
I'd have to try it again. I've had enough orange teas that it's not easy to distinguish them from each other by memory, minus the one that uses orange oil, which I'm not hugely fond of. I think I like peels or pieces better.
|
So...advice for preparing tea (and all) before you need it. (I have a habit of forgetting to eat/drink until I am not of the mind to think well)
|
Just make it like normal and put it in the fridge? Purists might complain, but I can't imagine what else you would do. Just make it plain, add milk sugar if needed when you go to actually have it.
And my Murchie's Orange Spice tea tastes somewhat like mild gingerbread with orange. |
If you take your tea with sugar, you should add it while the tea is still hot. It's a completely different flavor than sugar added to cold tea.
|
I think my orange spice tea needs more cloves. The orange flavour is nice thought. It uses peels. The "Juicy Orange" from David's has orange oil, which has an aftertaste I'm not fond of. I got it because it was a pu'erh tea, which is hard to find.
How dare they get rid of my Cinnamon heart! Murchie's did have some Cinnamon candy-like coffee, but I wasn't about to spend the money on a whole bag until I had an idea of it. Coffee is passable if I can't get the proper tea. |

My new favorite tea is from Stash. White Chocolate Mocha and it's reaaalllyyy good! Especially if you like those types of coffee drinks as well! You can choose the sweetener you put in your tea, as well as whether you add cream. It is quite wonderful!
|
Haven't encountered it myself.
I just tried Murchie's Chai yesterday. Tastes like chai, but very mild. I think I still prefer Stash or Twinnings over it, or the discontinued David's Bollywood Chai. (You suck, David! |
I got a new loose leaf and am disappointed.
It was an Apple Spice Tea (smelled exactly like apple cider) I tried it in store mixed with a pomegranate chai and it was wonderful and fall-feeling.... Bought it, brought it home...... The chick put almost no apple tidbits in my bag and it's mostly different variations of cinnamon. I then tried to mix it with my orange tea to make orange spice..... nope. Adding honey made the spice taste worse after I tried to fix the orange tea.... Ended up throwing the whole cup out T.T |
Teavana's got a new seasonal caramel tea; I forget exactly what it's blended with, but it's good. :9

OH EM GEE i must go to teavanna as soon as i can! this tea sounds amazing! :D |
Okay, I got out the tea I bought. It's Caramel Almond Amaretti herbal tea. There's also a Caramel Coconut Sea Salt herbal tea.
|
all of that sounds delicious |
I have sleeping issues and I encountered a sort of "banana cinnamon tea" (tea in so far as you boil the bananas in water) that I figure I'll try. Commercials teas don't always seem to do the job.
So where does one get Cinnamon oil? No dice at the grocery store, though I haven't checked health food stores yet. I'm tempted to just crack out my plain pu'ehr and add some Goldschlager. |
