Lotus Green

Made by Tazo, Lotus Green is a green tea infused with the essence of lotus blossoms.

Flavor: It has a flowery taste, but is quite bitter. It wasn't bad but it definitely seemed to be an acquired taste. Anyone familiar with the flavor of jasmine will appreciate this, as it tasted like an extra-strong version of jasmine green tea (which I have yet to review).

Suggested Additions: I tried to add sugar to counter the bitterness but it seemed to make it worse. Perhaps next time I will try a bit of lemon, since lemon is often used to make coffee less bitter. There was no lemon available at the time, however.

Ingredients: green tea, natural lotus flower flavor, other natural flavors.

Purpose: It was the most intriguing option available out of the display of Tazo teas. Also, it is a decaffeinated green tea, so its good to have in the evening as well.
