Which I knew, and yet I bought another box. What was I thinking?
Candy Cane Lane, OTOH, is pretty much eldest daughter's favorite tea, ever.
Nutcracker Sweet, Gingerbread Spice, Sugar Plum Spice, all good with a bit of sugar and cream (half and half, milk, whatever). But then there's Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride, which smells heavenly and tastes like a whole lotta nothin'. I've been known to throw in some of those little red cinnamon candies you decorate cookies with so there's something to taste, but I could make "cinnamon candy tea" without the Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride any day.
I tend to combine a fair percentage of my Celestial Seasonings teas with black tea anyhow, but you can still taste them that way and there's a point to that. Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride? Non-medicinal, essentially tasteless, pretty pointless.
At least it isn't as bad as coffee, which smells heavenly but tastes awful... :D
