I found out at the weekend that my two nephews ages 4 and 5. They appeared to like apple and cinnamon tea but it wasn't very flavourful.

Do you have some tasty favourites?

They all smell better than they taste.

My favourite is Twinings lemon & ginger. Have been drinking it for years. Also like peppermint tea, and Twinings Beetroot, Orange & Ginger, which doesn't taste strongly of beetroot.

I love Twinings Spicy ginger and their mint tea too

Liquorice and peppermint is nice. Surprisingly sweet!

Bird and Blend do a huge variety of herbal and fruit teas, and they actually have flavour! Strawberry Lemonade is lovely

The yogi teas are about the only ones I've tried that lived up to the expectations created by the smell! The liquorice and mint one is my favourite.

Lemon and ginger in winter when I have a cold. Apple and cinnamon in Autumn. Berry flavours in Spring and Summer.

The fruit teas gave me sore teeth/gums.
Peppermint is fine though!

There is also a tea shop in Leeds Market that sells the most gorgeous tea called Love Story. So delicious.

I think they are all awful (I’ve tried them all,
ever hopeful). frankly think they smell lovely and taste like damp socks. Or nothing. Or straw.

a lemon wedge and a teaspoon of honey, or a dash of ribena, or there is a liquid honey, lemon and ginger bottle you can get at Tesco, or lemon tea, or basically anything other than the teabags.

I like the turmeric from pukka tea - only issue is, it will stain a white mug yellow.

I also like the peach & orange one .

I had some lovely rhubarb and custard tea bags from bird and blend recently. I loved them!

FrogSplash · 08/11/2023 20:56

Bird and Blend's Cold Weather Warrior is my favourite tea ever. Eucalyptus, zesty mint and a hint of chilli. Sounds mad but this time of year especially it just feels like it'll fend off lurgies and warm you.

Tetley: Rose, Rosehip & something else I can't remember is lovely. It tastes much stronger than most others I've tried.
Other than that, I like licorice tea brands are Yogi Teas & Pukka do a 3 licorice one.

Tea pigs choc and mint is like drinking ice-cream. Their popcorn tea is like liquid popcorn. Their gingerbread tea is wintry and cinnamony. There are a few that I have liked but can't remember them all.

Copperoliverbear · 08/11/2023 22:52

Berry flavours. X

MellowMelly · 08/11/2023 22:58

Whittard instant tea. It’s got sugar in it but I don’t care. It’s literally as good as it smells and I’ve converted some anti herbal tea people. Cranberry and Raspberry is beautiful and they also do a mojito flavoured one 😃

Deathraystare · 09/11/2023 07:47

Hmm. I don't think they would like the licorice or lemon snd ginger onesi like it myself but I am a grownup! I will look for some more fruity ones
