Orange Tea Reviews

Oranges & Orange Blossoms - Image Courtesy of Wikipedia

I love oranges, so it should be no surprise that I try every tea that is suppose to taste like orange whenever I can. In many ways, I consider orange my favorite "infusion" into any tea - although admittedly mint isn't very far behind. What can I say, me and oranges just "mix."

Unfortunately, my love for oranges has gotten me into trouble from time to time. No, I'm not stealing oranges off the vine, as tempting as it may be. It's just that I'll try any tea that has "orange" in its label or list of ingredients. And some of these teas have been pretty disappointing!
