Well, I just reviewed 2 Tazo teas, one bad and one good. Let's see what the third one brings us.
Outsides: This one is another herbal tea with a crapton of ingredients: hibiscus, tropical flavor (what the hell is this supposed to mean, Tazo?), citric acid and licorice (not again!), orange peel, cinnamon, rosehips, lemongrass and fruit juice extract for color. Again, this is a nice,individually-wrapped foil sachet and the teabag is standard. I brewed this in boiling water for 5 minutes. The color is very purple and it smells a bit sweeter and more floral with a hint of cinnamon.
Insides: First off, I don't see why Tazo thought the citric acid was necessary because the hibiscus already adds a bit of a sour kick to it. If anything, I feel as though it hinders the flavor because you have this nice cinnimon and orange flavor and the tropical note of hibiscus, but drinking it, it's a little too sour. I will say that i feel the licorice complements the sweet spices while not being in anyone's face.
Overall: It's ok. It needs improvement.
My Rating: Try it (but only if you can get it for cheap/free)
Tazo is everywhere. It's at Starbucks, in grocery stores, big box stores, drugstores and pretty much anywhere that sells coffee or tea. Therefore, Ima be lazy and not put a website.
