Tasters Review:
I LOVE that Republic of Tea is thinking outside of the box on these really unique flavors especially with this Raw Green Bush Tea Line!!
The aroma of this Orange Red Carrot Raw Green Bush Tea is mellow yet pleasant. I could smell mostly orange and carrot but I can tell there were other ingredients in there, too! The Green Rooibos is perfect in this! The flavors of the Orange and Carrot are really awesome together, too! I could taste a V8 type comparison to it or a fresh Carrot Juice, even. I really liked the Carrot and Orange together! This is much smoother than I expected it to be.
The only thing I would change would be to intensify the overall flavor. It’s so tasty I wanted it to be stronger so I tried what I like to call the DOUBLE SHOT!
2 bags = DOUBLE SHOT!!!!
The color was much more vibrant. The aroma was stronger. The taste was magnified yet still smooth.
I will say that I would probably do this 2-bag method more because I do like it stronger!
What can I say…but…Carrots and Orange! YUM!
It’s a little more beet-like this time around too…using the DOUBLE SHOT Method (or Double Bag Method).
Neat offering! I really like this!

Tasters Review:
Little Black Dress – Slimming Citrus is an Oolong-Green Tea-Green Rooibos Blend…and I was VERY excited to try it! It sounded very unique and creative!
It brewed VERY Dark and smelled mostly floral and with a hint of lemon. I could taste the green tea a bit more than the oolong and green rooibos. The Jasmine stood out as the floral taste more as it cools. This had a slight vegetal/earthy taste towards the end of the sip.
I liked the idea of this one and the taste is…well…pretty TASTY!

Tasters Review:
The dry ingredients smell Marvelous!
Most of these ingredients I wouldn’t normally choose in an herbal because I usually don’t care for full flavor tarty herbals…but…this one was so much different than the others I have tried!
Based on the ingredients and being able to see everything obviously when looking at it…and the powerful smell I really thought this would be tart, but, altho it’s quite juicy and fruity it’s more of a smooth and pleasant herbal and it just maybe because of the green rooibos pairing!?
Not sure…but what ever da.u.de did with this blend I sure do like it! So much so that I might just have to say this is my FAVORITE Fruity Herbal I have ever had…and guess what…it has hibiscus in it! BUT…it doesn’t seem to be bothering me!
I’m so surprised with this one! They really did a great job on this! It’s great both HOT and COLD!
Again…I just can’t get over how much I like this one (based on the ingredients and my previous attempts with other brands and ended up being not so good).

BREWING INSTRUCTIONS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Use 1 teaspoon per cup.
There are many ways to use loose leaf tea.
1. In a teaball
2. In a french press
3. In a pot and use a hand strainer when pouring into cup
4. In a loose leaf tea bag
5. Pour over a coffee filter. The only mission is to strain the leaf from the water before serving. It’s that simple!Rooibos is a hardy leaf and is usually brewed in a full boil, however, due to the herbs in this blend, it is best brewed about 190-200 degrees. Depending on strength desired, you can steep anywhere from a few seconds to a couple mins. Rooibos is naturally sweet and usually does not need sweetener. However, Rooibos is excellent with milk, cream and a little honey!

Tasters Review:
Yesterday I tried LEMONADE from Jar of Tea and LOVED it.
I know I am getting straight to the point with this review and not building up to my conclusion like I usually try to do but this Flavored Green Rooibos gets straight to the point as well – so it’s only fitting.
If you like LEMON you will like this tisane. If you like LEMONADE please TRY this flavored green rooibos!
The green rooibos background seems to fit the bill with the other lemony flavors here and it makes for an awesomely sweet lemonade taste. I’m sure this would be wonderful iced but let’s just say it didn’t make it that far. It was so yummy it didn’t stay in the cup long.
I will say I LOVE the way the way the jars and labels are decorated from Jar of Tea (even if some tea lovers argue glass isn’t their preferred way of storing or the safest long term storage method). But if you are a fan of different label and packaging or giving as a gift or have a cool/dry/dark place to display this jar – or if you are like me and don’t think it will last very long on your shelf because it’s so darned yummy you can’t resist it – you are going to want to check this one out!
Jar of Tea’s website is lovely and their customer service is top-notch! They have a creative selection of tea and tisanes and for that I am truly thankful.
