Thank you to Mighty Leaf for sponsoring this post! All opinions are my own.
I have never been much of a tea drinker. It’s not that I haven’t wanted to try tea, because I have. It is more that the tea I have tried hasn’t been good and those bad teas have turned me off to even the possibility that I might actually like tea.
Don’t get me wrong, I drink iced tea and do like that, but when it comes to hot tea I guess I’ve never had a quality tea that didn’t taste bitter or just make me want to pour my cup down the drain…until now.
Mighty Leaf sent me their Holiday Tea Collection Set to try to convince me tea could really be good. Although I was a bit skeptical at first, I have heard really great things about loose leaf tea so I figured I would give it a go.
Mighty Leaf Tea Holiday Tea Collection Set – My Thoughts
I guess I should have listened sooner when my father-in-law and sister-in-law told me that loose leaf tea was the only way to go. According to them loose leaf tea is usually high quality and tastes great. They were right! I not only liked the tea I tried, I was excited to drink more…that has never happened before!
Here is what is included in the set I received:
Curve Tall Tea Mug with Infuser: 15 oz. porcelain tea mug with stainless steel infuser. Available in white or turquoise
Orange Dulce: A black tea blend that teems with bergamot, orange, vanilla, and jasmine blossoms.
Mayan Chocolate Truffle: A stimulating caffeine-free herbal infusion with chocolate chips, chili, red pepper, apple, strawberry and a sweet finish
Holiday Blend: A festive blend of Chinese black tea with cranberry, orange, papaya, apple, peach and spice.
My favorite is the Mayan Chocolate Truffle. It is just sweet enough that I don’t even need to add any honey or sweetener to it (I have a sweet tooth). The Holiday Blend is quite good as well, and the fruit peels that are added give it just the right flavor. The Orange Dulce pictured below was probably the strongest of the three in my opinion, but it was still really good. I added a bit of honey to sweeten it up and found that I could really pick out the orange and vanilla.
I was also super happy with the mug and stainless steel infuser. Because I’m not a huge tea drinker, I really had no way to seep the tea and this infuser made it so simple!
So whether you are a die hard tea lover, or someone who is new to the whole experience like me, I really think the Holiday Tea collection set is the perfect gift! Not only does it come with three tasty varieties of tea, you also get a tall tea mug and a stainless steel infuser that fits right inside the mug!
