A refreshing blend,
The mint is stronger for me,
And aids clarity
An effervescent blend combines the sweet, smooth, well-rounded feel of green tea with the fresh zest of lemon and orange, finished off with the cool gentleness of spearmint.

A lovely light tea with excellent mint flavor with the green!
Light green tea with refreshing citrus and cooling mint. None of the ingredients are particularly strong, but the result is a nice, mellow tea that's perfectly balanced with the right amount of natural sweetness. I like a flavor punch with my teas, but this is nice when you want something a little more mild.
Nope, not a tea for me! The combination of citrus and mint creates an 'orange juice and toothpaste' flavor that I dislike greatly.
UPDATED from 6/18/21: There is a lovely smell of mint and citrus as the CommuniTEA packet opens. It steeps into a pale golden elixir. This tea has a very yummy minty flavor forward with the citrus flavors in the background. The green tea is a perfect light base. This makes a lovely, lovely ice tea and on a hot summer day, a delight to drink. Adding ¼ teaspoon of sweetener helps the citrusy flavors stand out more. Adding a sprig of fresh spearmint gives this a nice minty finish. Tasty while hot, this is also a perfect ice tea! (3 mins @ 180º F + sweetener).
Today's CommuniTEA is Citrus Mint Green (6-7-22). When I opened my packet, I noticed a ton of Lemongrass, which I love, but orange was notably absent. I added some orange peels and sourwood honey, but despite this, the tea was very light in flavor. It's not going to be a favorite of mine, but it's really not bad. I would still recommend this tea if you like very light teas!
A nice minty citrus tea! I really enjoyed this cup <3
The tea is very reminiscent of mint, I had trouble trying to taste the citrus.
06/07/22 CommuniTEA portion: Cold Brewed this time for a different take - even more refreshing. Would make a great summer pitcher to keep on hand.
01/22/22 - What a refreshing green. Subtle citrus and mint notes rounded out the green well. I steeped at a lower temp the first time just to make sure I didn't overdo.
This was a nice green with a nostalgic taste. I think spearmint and citrus go really well together with the smooth green tea, this is the kind of tea I like to relax with.
Interesting! This reminds me of my beloved casablanca mint tea, but with a citrus tang. I love how the green tea takes the bite out of the mint. I personally prefer the casablanca mint, but this is a well balanced and quality tea that any citrus-lemon fan will enjoy.
Green tea flavors are earthy and smooth throughout, followed by a citrusy orange and lemon pop on the aftertaste. There was only a hint of mint - much more of a citrus green. Good tea, but I (a mint lover) wanted more mint!
I like the citrus and mint flavor combination. I just wish I tasted more tea.
The flavors of mint, citrus and green tea blend together so well. My first sip just put a big smile on my face it tasted so good. I'm going to have to try this iced like people are suggesting. (180F for 2min)
Citrus Mint Green
Recommended Steep: 2-3 minutes @180°F
I steeped this blend for about for 3 minutes at 185°F, since I don’t have an 180°F setting on my teapot, in 11 oz of water with 1 tsp of rock/tea sugar. This tea gives off a lovely minty lime-aide aroma which remains even when steeping. Mint and lime predominate the flavor profile and I enjoyed this immensely. I wish I had thought to re-steep. This one, I believe, will lend itself nicely to being sipped hot or cold. I think I’d like to try this with one of Adagio’s flavored honeys in the future. 5 stars from me.
It's a very good tea, but it is very important to make sure you stir your blend before you scoop and brew. If the ingredients are not mixed properly, the citrus can easily get lost in the presence of the mint.
Pleasant tea with a soft citrus flavor and a crisp minty flavor. The combination pairs well, and this is quite refreshing.
You could smell the minty aroma as soon as you opened the packet. The scent wasn’t as strong after it brewed but it did have a nice minty flavor. The lemon was present as well but I couldn’t detect any orange flavors. This is a very refreshing tea.
Love it iced over agave and honey, So good. Love the lemongrass
Adagio has been my go to for teas for years and I love trying new blends.
I have been enjoying mango green tea but decided to try this one. Such a delicious flavor!
Will definitely be ordering more
This tastes a little different than it smells, but is still a really great option for a green tea. It tastes a little more grassy than it smells, but is still very enjoyable and earthy.
The citrus mint green is great on a hot day or just to have a great fresh drink.
I always appreciate a good green tea, it has a wonderful aroma.
Clean and crisp excellent served cold with splash of peach juice
Such a delicious blend of bright circus with a gentle minty taste. Highly refreshing!
A nice pick-me-up for my mid morning tea. Just the right balance of citrus and mint. Delicious!
I got this at the same time as I got the cocomint green, and with that one, the individual flavors are complimentary and can be sensed individually. This one? the citrus is hard to tell, as the mint overpowers it, and what you can taste doesn't work well with the actual tea's flavor. It's an acceptable green tea, but I don't plan on getting more.
This is delicious! Both the citrus and the mint balance nicely with the fresh green tea.
This was good but not particularly flavorful. It was very subtle on both the citrus and the green tea flavor. If that is your hope then this will be perfect for you, I was hoping for more of an 'in your face flavor'.
I absolutely love this tea! The mint gives it a nice refreshing taste without being too heavy. The lemongrass really rounds this tea out nicely.
What a refreshing and light green tea! This is a little minty with a little bit of lemon.
I absolutely love this tea! It’s my favorite tea ever
Very different! Not bad just a different taste. More minty than citrus. Reminded me of spearmint flavor.
Enjoyed this one after a meal. Very nice and refreshing.
Good afternoon tea. The mint is really refreshing. I don't get much citrus so I like to add a little lemon to mine.
so far our favorite flavor for hot and cold tea!
A refreshing tea for summer days (or those first warm days in spring) with a good balance of citrus and mint notes. Probably also good as iced tea but I haven't tried.
I was kind of disappointed. Or maybe I'm just not steeping my tea right. But I was actually hoping for more of stronger taste. I don't really taste the citrus just the mint and green tea. It could use more flavor.
Another great green tea from adagio! The mint is a good addition. Also love the citron green. Will be ordering both again soon.
I put off buying and trying this one since I'm not a big fan of mint in most cases. Also, I'm dubious about combining warm citrus with cooling mint. However, the tea was good. From my point of view, this blend has a few things in its favor:
1. It's more than an herbal tea.
2. It has lemongrass and lemon verbena instead of lemon balm which I perceive as insufficiently lemony and too minty.
3. It has natural flavoring added (lemon and orange) which boosts the citrus flavor profile.
This still won't be a *favorite* tea for me, but now I won't dread it if it happens to be an ingredient in a fandom blend. I know that it is possible for me to drink it straight.
I bought this along with PEACH Serenity and the Black honey to make my own Starbucks Medicine Ball. It's the perfect green tea with notes of citrus. In my opinion, a small scoup goes a long way because of the spearmint which is overpowering at times. I only drink this paired.
Like this a lot. With the citrus flavor, it adds a nice taste that makes it different.
This is a nice, light flavor. The mint and citrus compliment each other well without one overpowering the other. Great with a bit of honey!
Got this one for my sister. We're both huge fans of it
Super refreshing, not too minty. I don’t like a strong minty flavor. Great alternative to Apricot Green
While I love the flavor of mint, I have found that I vastly prefer spearmint in teas to peppermint. In this blend, the spearmint and the lemongrass create a refreshing cup that is satisfying from first sip to the very last, and I found that a sample size bag just wasn't enough!
Citrus and mint are two of my favorite flavors, so put them together and it just works! It's really more of a lemongrass and mint, as it doesn't taste heavily of fruit.
i love citrus, i love mint, i love green tea. this has it all. nice and refreshing, and AMAZING chilled! @adagioteas
We always keep this one stocked at home. We love this iced or hot
Love this tea! I like both green and mint teas, and this tea is a nice blend of the two
