Florida is calling with a sweetly soft combination of citrus paired with beautiful sunshiny flower blossoms, creating an orchard of flavor. A tribute to the plentiful citrus groves along the Indian River, this bright favorite blends orange slices and pretty rose petals.
Refreshing orange infusion with light floral undertones.
Price: $6.98 per 2 oz/$3.49 per oz
Preparations: 1.5 tsp, 208 degrees F, 5-6 min.
- The hue is a very pretty dark pink/light red... The color and the citrus smell made me associate it more with grapefruit.
- The lovely thing about herbal teas is that you can steep it for as long as you want, and the tea leaves don't release an astringent taste. In fact, this tea only has a stronger citrus flavor if you accidentally leave the tea leaves in for longer than 5 minutes, which I really like, so I've been deliberately leaving the tea leaves in the pot.
- The tea leaves smell really nice too, if you like fruity and sweet smells.
- The tea, however, isn't as sweet as it smells. I don't add any sugar since I don't particularly like sweet tea, but if you do, you may have to add one or two spoonfuls.
- If you pour the tea out a little before its full recommended steeping time (at about 3 minutes), you can definitely taste the light floral undertones. Otherwise, it'll be almost completely concealed by the orange flavor. I happen to enjoy the citrus flavor more than the floral flavor, so I steep the tea longer, but this is for if you prefer a lighter, more subtle flavor.
- It's great as a sweetened iced tea!
