I have found the holy grail! (Tea)
« on: August 16, 2018, 01:52:18 PM »
Ever since I arrived here I’ve been searching for a good substitute to my favourite green tea. My go to is Tazo Zen. It’s green tea with lemongrass and spearmint. After much searching...I found it! Twinnings Camomile and Spearmint. It’s tastes exactly the same. Only downfall...sleepiness  :P

I have to have my tea every morning. I’ve tried black tea and don’t care for it. It’s so odd to me to put milk and sugar in tea. I’m too southern for that. Iced tea is a requirement where I’m from lol.  :D

I LOVE Tazo Zen!! I was stuck in a Westin for a month once (long, long story) and there was a Starbucks inside. I would have a Tazo Zen daily.

I need to find a good Jasmine green tea in the UK. There's a brand here in the states that I love called Numi but I've yet to see it there so I'm thinking I'm going to have to find another.

I had zen every day. It was my favourite. I brought an entire box with me when I moved over and have been rationing it until I could find a substitute.

Don’t forget to check out tkmaxx for tea brands too.

Good idea! I always forget that TKMaxx has gourmet food items.  :)
