Organic Positively Tea Company, Island Breeze Rooibos Tea, Loose Leaf, 16 Ounce

Smells and tastes fruity.

Imagine sipping on a melody of juicy berries and zingy citrus – that's this tea. Sweet and tangy waltz together in perfect harmony, leaving an irresistible, sunlit taste that stays on your tongue, begging for an encore. It's especially good using a sugar substitute like Splenda. I personally would not recommend using completely Stevia though, as it mixes weird with the citrus flavor, but doing half Splenda or Sugar and half Stevia, it's a perfect blend.The freshness and scent of this tea is perfect, and you can tell it's good quality stuff. When brewed, it smells wonderful, but also smells tasty by itself!I make this tea literally every day for our household, I've already set up a subscription to get it biweekly.Bottom line? Best fruit tea I have ever tasted, and I will keep coming back to this brand for its variety of flavor, the price, and the ease of making it. :)

Absolutely love this. Aroma is awesome. Beautiful color. A lot of tea for the money. I will buy again

Overall happy with the product - it makes a great sweet "tea" to add to other beverages when you don't want to eliminate processed foods from your diet. This being said, the flavor is grassier than other brands I've used. The flavor works wonderfully with herbal teas; not so great with coffee.

Wonderful Tea Quality

First off: the amount of tea you get for the price is phenomenal. This will last me for quite a while, and I usually drink one large mug of tea a day.(Probably the equivalent of 2 regular cups) I also consider myself a tea-lover and I appreciate a good, high quality tea, and selectively drink loose leaf.Now, for the quality, I will say it's not quite as on par as my more premium loose leaf teas that I get from trustworthy local specialty tea shops (not a national chain, I have mixed feelings about those) but again for the price it's quite a bargain. For example, it's less than half the price of my better teas, but I would say the quality is around 3/4-ish+, so to me this is a solid, every day tea. I would repurchase.The tea I got was the Blood Orange Vanilla Rooibos, and I was pleasantly surprised that it actually contains hibiscus and rosehips, which give it a tangy and almost sweet aftertaste. So far I'm not getting much/any vanilla, but it's possible that the bag settled in shipment and I'm getting mostly orange peels at the top of the bag, which would overpower the taste. Personally to me this is no problem as I enjoy a good citrus rooibos blend and I got this tea primarily for the blood orange. I can also see (taste?) this being a good iced tea with a longer steep time to bring out more of a heavy citrus tangy flavor. The rooibos in this is okay--the needles aren't as uniform and uncrushed as I'd like, but it does not give a dusty taste to the tea.Minor detail: but I love the packaging. Personally, I find the off-white/dark blue logo visually appealing, and the bag looks cute on my desk/countertop as it is.

I drink mint tea every night after dinner. I thought this would be better and more cost effective than buying the individual teabags.My friends use this brand but a different flavor so I thought I would try this in the peppermint. It smells like mint and grass mixed together when you open the bag. It did not taste like mint at all but had a very bitter taste. I tried adding honey but it did not help. Had to dump the cup I made. Now I have this bag that will not get used. I wasted $20.00 since you can not return it.

Root beer brings back many happy memories of when it was far more popular in So. CA in the 60s and 70s (and served in a frosted mug). Nowadays we know better about its high sugar content and except for some obscure brands typically in health food stores, the root beer sold is likely to be full of artificially created flavors of root beer.That’s why I gave this five stars. I doubted it could come anywhere near the real flavor of root beer. Happy to be tasting it again and even better, getting the many benefits of rooibos and other ingredients in this tea. I know that home carbonation devices are not supposed to be used with anything but water, yet if I had one, I’d try carbonating this tea chilled.The only caveat I have is to use an infuser with a very fine mesh, otherwise small fragments of the ingredients will show up in your tea (at least they float, so you can skim them out).
