Instant tea has been one hot fade this year and I’m not going to lie, I’m intrigued by this concept. I will always be a loose leaf tea girl at heart, but as the end of the year approaches and the holidays really start becoming more hustly and bustly (are those words?), I find myself grabbing more convenient options when it comes to my tea on the go. Clarks Tea Cubes fits that bill perfectly.
Clarks Tea Cubes offers three flavors of instant tea cubes where you basically prep your water, plop in your tea cube and you are set. No mess and no accompanying tea bag to throw away-which is what Clarks Tea Cubes is all about. The convenient instant tea without anything to throw away ie tea bag or additional packaging. I was instantly drawn to the green tea offering and couldn’t wait to see what this tea was all about.
So I prepped this cuppa up like I would any green tea blend. Once the water was ready to go, I threw in two tea cubes and let the tea do its thing. After a few minutes, the tea was ready and to my surprise, there was no sediment at the bottom of the cuppa like I expected. I did notice that there was sugar in the tea so I prepared myself for this blast of sweetness but I’m happy to report that did not happen.
Refreshing mint with a subtle green tea base was what I got. Sip after sip, I was happy and then I got about half way through the cuppa and gave my cup a swirl. Sadly, that stirred up the sugar that must have been hiding towards the bottom and now the cuppa is insanely sweet and overpowering the rest of the cup.
I wish Clarks Tea Cubes offered a sugar free version of this tea because I really don’t feel like the tea needs the sugar. But this is such a great idea and I was super excited to try it. Because of the sugar bit, I’ll be sending this tea off to another Sister to try, but I was incredibly happy and thankful to try it. And I’m hoping one day, Clarks Tea Cubes will offer will offer a sugar free version so I can greedily drink this tea down as iced because I can see this tea being amazing in that fashion!
If you have a tea lover on your list this holiday season, these tea cubes would be a great stocking stuffer!

I was just looking at a different brand of “instant tea” and was intrigued by the idea. I decided against them because they are sweetened and I don’t put a lot of sugar in my tea (if any). Would also love to find an unsweetened option!!
Thank you for sharing!!
