For those of you who are into coffee flavored teas – this one is right up there! Not only does it contain Green Coffee Beans – it also has ground coffee! Pair that with a blended black tea AND Pu-erh base and you are sure to get your caffeine blitz for the day! Oh! And there are some chamomile flowers in there, too!
I actually kind of wondered WHY the Chamomile? But once I tasted Festive Coffee Fushion from Stylin’ Tea Blends it all made sense! It seemed to round out the flavor and cut back that coffee aftertaste a bit, too!
The Pu-erh and the Black Tea were fairly strong when it comes to a tea strength but the coffee flavors seemed to play leap-frog with the tea a bit. Over all this was a VERY strong flavor! Festive Coffee Fushion from Stylin’ Tea Blends was a nice kick in the butt to get me going on a rough morning!
But let’s talk about this aroma, shall we!? Festive Coffee Fushion from Stylin’ Tea Blends was strong on the tongue but also strong on the ole’ sniffer, too! WOWZA!

Wake Up Juice from Geeky Teas
Good morning, Tea Buddies! I write to you with enthusiasm from the caffeine in Geeky Teas’ “Wake Up Juice,” which absolutely lives up to its moniker.
The taste is a malty citrus spice. Malt isn’t my usual jam, but this works really well. I am surprised at how much I like this. It’s a well-rounded, energizing mix.
This tea is the perfect fall pick. I am definitely one who savors oversized sweaters, leggings, boots, a novel, and a tall travel cup of hot tea. I love the rich blazes of tumbling leaves. I can imagine drinking this over a campfire, if only I were the sort of person who liked to camp.
(Do you ever have visions of an Idealized Self who likes all those things you don’t actually like? My Idealized Self bikes to work and climbs Mt Fiji. She doesn’t get stressed out by cities. She knows where her blow-dryer is, and actually uses it. Her nails are lovely.)
ANYWAY, Geeky Teas has a LOT of teas I’m probably going to someday try. The descriptions and doodles are hilarious in-jokes for geeks. TAKE MY MONEY. Apparently there’s a physical PLACE you can GO to see these people in person and play board games, but they’re in Cali and I’m in Pennsylvania. It’s now on my bucket list.

Taster’s Review:
Pu erh is a tea that scares and intimidates me. I never know how to correctly prepare it or if I’m even drinking it right. I’ve tried to learn but this is one tea I want to actually sit down and learn from more of an expert. But regardless, I thought I would try my hand at a flavored Pu erh from Geeky Teas.
I’ve tried flavored Pu erhs in the past and they didn’t turn out right. So I thought I would give it another go. This Pu erh blend combines strawberries, cocoa nibs, hazelnut, vanilla, and creme flavor. A combination I would typically shy away from anyway since I’m not a fan of hazelnut. But this is a Geeky Tea blend and I’m determined to try all of their amazingly fun blends.
Right off the bat, this tea smelled almost sinful. A decadent blend for sure. The dry leaf mix had a lovely chocolate covered strawberry note with hints of hazelnuts. I prepared this up like I would a black tea-212F and steeped for about 4 minutes. 4 minutes later, I poured the tea into my cuppa and allowed it to cool for just a moment.
I have to say, this tea was fantastic and delicious. I was incredibly hesitant to try this tea because I thought it would be an instant pour out but it was the complete opposite! The tea had a lovely dark rich and like the dry leaf mix-sinful feel to it. Bright strawberry flavor with a rich chocolate and hints of hazelnuts, vanilla and creme surrounded each and every sip. I am not a chocolate fan nor a hazelnut fan and I can’t get enough of this tea. I have had several sessions with this tea and each sip is as good as the last. This is one of those teas you enjoy when you’ve got a sweet tooth that needs satisfying and you don’t want the calories. Plus this tea is dedicated to The Never Ending Story. . I mean it doesn’t get much better!!
