Description

Get swept away to paradise with this wonderful blend of Rooibos tea and the flavor of coconuts and pineapple. Even on a dreary, cold day you can be transported to a sunny beach by enjoying this unique, naturally caffeine-free blend hot or iced. Don't forget your sunblock!

Story

The first encounter between a European and a pineapple occurred in 1493, during Christopher Columbus' second voyage to the Caribbean. Lowering his anchor off the volcanic island of Guadaloupe, Columbus and crew went ashore to inspect a deserted Carib village. Amidst the jungle foliage and wooden pillars, they came upon cook pots filled with human body parts. Nearby were piles of freshly gathered vegetables and fruits, including pineapples. Columbus passed on the exotic meat. But ate the pineapple.

"This tea smells way stronger than it tastes, which is good, since the pineapple aroma is almost overbearing. I wish I could taste the coconut more."

"I'm not sure what those tropical flavors are supposed to be, but I won't be trying to find out."

"This tea smells like King's Hawaiian Sweet Bread when it's brewed (very sweet, yeasty smell) and tastes awful. I'm not sure what to make of this tea. Usually I like Rooibos blends, but after several tries I still can't stand it. Luckily I only bought the sample..."

"This is wonderful. I mix it with some Jasmine to really pull the flavors out. It is a very unique taste that is similar to a berry 'Crystal Light' or something. I like it a lot. Try it iced as well."

"By far the worst tasting tea I have ever had! It smells like rotten fruit and beer. "

"Honestly, the 'tropic' flavor is a little weird. I can't really put my finger on it, it's just strange. Not bad, just not what I would expect 'tropic' to taste like. I do drink this on occasion, however, usually mixed with other herbals like Pina Colada. "
