Review: This is a generic hibiscus tea, but mixed up with lemongrass and a very mild hint of spearmint (that's all you can smell, when you brew it). We don't feel this mixes well with the tartness of the hibiscus or rosehips. Lemongrass also has a tendency to taste artificial, even though it's not, and it overpowers the other flavours here. In fact, we couldn't discern any of the other flavours, despite that intriguing list of ingredients.
It probably does wake you up...but not much. 1% guarana seeds infused in water isn't likely to make a huge difference to your day; and the ginseng content must be less than 1% if it comes at the very end of the ingredients list. Overall, this tea isn't bad, but we think it promises to do more than it will - and the flavour isn't especially interesting, either.Best time of year to drink this: Summer
