I was so pleased to work with them on this review. They sent me three different boxes of tea pouches, I chose the Taste of the Tropics flavors and it included, Green Tea Tropical, Vanilla Bean, and African Nectar.
The very first thing I noticed about the tea pouches, notice I did not say tea bags, because these are definitely a step above a regular tea bag. They are sewn together; a fabric pouch and they seemed to be bigger than normal tea bags.
All of the teas had a nice aroma to them; they really let you feel the experience long before you tasted them.
Green Tea Tropical is my favorite of the bunch to serve over ice. Very refreshing, and slightly sweet. I do not have a lot of familiarity with green teas, but this did have a different flavor than the black and white teas I have tried in the past.
When drinking it iced I did add a small amount of raw sugar but, that is my palate, I always prefer things a little sweeter.
Vanilla Bean was a surprise. It was good in the mornings hot as an alternative to coffee. I did taste the vanilla, but more impressively, I smelled the vanilla rather like when you are baking or cooking with it. This tea also had more caffeine in it and for the morning, I liked that. I do not know any other way to describe this one other than smooth. A good coffee alternative if you are trying to get away from the coffee habit!
I did the African Nectar one afternoon during naptime. I figured I had a few minutes to myself I could have a little breather with this tea. This African Nectar has no caffeine, and I found the flavor nice but not a favorite. Had a bit of a honey overtone to it and was nice, just that I did not like it quite as much as the others that I tried.
Overall, I think these teas are a step above what you would normally find out there and well worth the effort to try.
Mighty Leaf has a ton of flavors and I am going to find some acai pomegranate to try this summer. I drink a lot more iced tea in the summer than anything else, so I am excited to try it.

April 20, 2014 at 9:21 pmI prefer hot tea, but I keep a cup next to me all the time, so it starts out hot and is usually cold by the time I’m ready for a refill.
