Tea Review: Tea People’s Spicy Apple {+ giveaway!}

Spicy Apple – Tea People
 Spicy Apple tea pyramidSpicy Apple Fruit tea
Ingredients: Natural dried Apple, Hibiscus, Dried Ginger, Cardamom, Cinnamon, Cloves, Pepper, Stevia, Cornflower petals and Natural flavours

Steep Time: 6 minutes

First Sip Thought: “Peppery!”

Smell: I was really happy to noticed that this tisane was not overloaded with cinnamon. Those who have read previous tea reviews of mine know that I’m not crazy about too much cinnamon. The first smells I noticed came from the ginger and cardamom. Quite a pretty scent that reminded me of a chai I used to always drink. Spices galore!


Taste: I should first mention that this tisane is packaged in silky pyramid tea bags. Plenty of room for steeping is provided – loved seeing the bites of apples expand excessively. I actually was impressed with the size of the dried ginger and cloves for a teabag. After it steeped, it was a brown shade with hints of redness. Being a fruit tisane, sweetener is not needed as I found the apples were the perfect amount of sweetness. Plus, you may notice from the ingredients that stevia is already included. This warm and inviting beverage is spicy but as a peppery spice, not a scolding hot spice, leaving enjoyable tingles on your tongue. Trying this tisane both hot and iced, because of the peppery taste I think I enjoyed it more hot as I felt it was too peppery for me to bare iced.



Verdict: 3 out of 5 tea leaves
