Twinings Darjeeling Tea: Sweet Addiction!

October 17, 2019 by Joi Leave a Comment

There are certain varieties (and brands) of tea that I always, always, always have on hand. Always. The tea you see pictured here, Twinings Darjeeling Tea is one of the ones I’m most loyal to.

There are other brands of Darjeeling but I haven’t found one I love as much. There’s just something about Darjeeling done right and Twinings does Darjeeling SO VERY RIGHT!

Did you know that Twinings was founded in London, England in 1706? Talk about longevity and on the job experience. Little wonder they’re one of the best tea brands in the business. You pick up a bit of knowledge over hundreds of years, I’d imagine.

Darjeeling tea is one of those teas that tastes exceptional iced or hot. For people like me, who drink tea all day and all night, this is a must. If I had to choose my favorite way to enjoy a cup of Darjeeling, however, it’d be hot.

Here’s the kicker, I’m a honey fanatic and add honey to most of the cups of hot tea I drink. However, even I wouldn’t dream of adding anything to a cup of Darjeeling tea. It’d seem… well, wrong. This tea has a hint of sweetness without adding anything at all. That, as well as its beautiful fragrance, make this one of my favorite teas.

This Heavenly intense black tea is from the foothills of the Himalayas, and it doesn’t let you forget its exotic background for one second.

Some teas are perfectly content to have a subtle, almost shy, personality. They’re subtle, so they don’t make a lot of noise. They’re just happy to be in your presence. Subtle teas are like, it’s up to you – if you want to add a little fruit, fine. If you want to stir in a little honey, great. If you want to eat cookies or pie as you sip, wonderful. Have at it.

It’s all about you, and subtle teas insist on being your second in command.

Then there’s Darjeeling Tea. Darjeeling Tea is the star of the show, with a delightful diva-like presence that I LOVE.

If you’ve never tried Darjeeling Tea, you have to grab some Twinings Darjeeling Tea and prepare to fall in love.

Darjeeling Tea

You’ll find yourself following the same ritual I do:

  • I open the box of Twinings Darjeeling Tea
  • I put my nose to the box and inhale the wonderful aroma
  • I joyfully brew up an amazing mug to enjoy, usually two cups because one is never enough
  • I wonder how I ever got along without Darjeeling

It’s a wonderful ritual and one I highly recommend.

Twinings Green Tea With Mint: Refreshingly Delicious!

June 11, 2013 by Joi Leave a Comment

Twinings Mint Green Tea

I’m not sure why, but when it came to tea  I was slow when it came to jumping on the mint bandwagon. I’ve always grown mint in my herb garden and am obsessed with the smell, but the thought of flavoring food or drinks with it never seemed like an attractive idea.  I’d read raving reviews about mint tea and pretty much shake my head wondering, “How could people even do that?!”

Now I know – because the results are breathtaking!

One of my favorite new teas I’ve tried is Green Tea with Mint from Twinings.  This tea is extraordinary.   You can always judge how wonderful a tea is by how fast it disappears from our tea shelf.  This one may have broken a record. I bought a box on a Saturday and by Wednesday it was completely gone.

Suffice to say I love, love, love this tea.

I’ve probably mentioned this before, but when doing a review (whether it’s one of my Kentucky restaurant reviews, food blog reviews, book reviews, or tea reviews), I pay particularly close attention to the first words that come to mind.  After one sip of Twinings Mint Green Tea, the first three words that came to mind were refreshing, delicious, and wow.  Wow’s always good.

The second thing I thought was that I should have bought 2 boxes instead of just 1. I knew this one wasn’t going to last long.

If you can’t find Twinings Cold Brewed Iced Tea Green Tea with Mint in your favorite store, click the link and order a box from Amazon.

Better make that 2 boxes….
