Tea of the Week-24 Days of Tea Edition-Part 1


This weeks tea of the week is actually 8 different teas! My mom gave me the 24 days of tea as a gift for advent. So each day I open up one of the flaps and get to try a new kind of tea I love it so much I thought I would share it with you by telling you my opinions of all the different teas I get to try! Let's dive right in.


Day 1-Forever Nuts

I've had forever nuts before (it was actually one of my first teas I ever featured in a tea of the week). I love this tea. I love the sweet almond-y flavor and I was super excited when I opened this tea up on day number one.

Day 2-Organic Vanilla Chai

This tea kind of reminded me of Maple Sugar. I really liked it. It has cinnamon, black tea, licorice root, ginger and vanilla. Andrew tried a bit of this one as well and he really enjoyed it (which is kind of a shock since he doesn't really like tea very much)

Day 3-Quangzhou Milk Oolong

I was really skeptical about this tea. It doesn't have a super strong smell and in the past I haven't really been a fan of oolong tea. However, this one was really nice. It was comforting in the same kind of way as I find an earl grey or an English breakfast tea. Not any super flashy flavours, but still really nice.

Day 4-Pink Flamingo

I have been dying to try this tea, but for some reason I never got around to trying it out. I was so excited when I opened up this one. And I was really impressed. Pink Flamingo definitely lived up to my expectations. It's nice and tart, but not so tart that it needs sweetener. Definitely two thumbs up.

Day 5-Organic Detox

Those of you who know me know I am not a health nut. I generally avoid anything with the word detox in it. So I was scared to try this one. But it really wasn't that bad. It had nice flavours, but it's not something I would go out of my way to have.

Day 6-Coco Chai Rooibos

This one was delicious. It tasted kind of Christmas-y to me, it would be perfect with a little bit of milk added to it. In addition to Rooibos, it has cinnamon, ginger, coconut flakes, cloves, pink peppercorns and cardamom. I was very impressed and surprised by this tea. I didn't think I was going to like it as much as I did.

Day 7-English Breakfast

English Breakfast is my favourite kind of black tea. And I've always wanted to try David's Tea's blend of English breakfast but I never got around to buying any. I definitely think I will in the future though.

Day 8-Cocomint Cream

This one is definitely my favorite so far. I plan on buying more of this one for sure! It has apple, coconut, sweet blackberry leaves, peppermint, and spearmint. I was really surprised by how much I liked the coconut flavour in this tea. I would HIGHLY recommend you try this one if you can.

There you go. My review on the first eight teas from the 24 Days of Tea! I'm so excited for what the rest of this collection has in store.
