Ginger & Sunshine Lemon

Good tea

If you're into your herbal teas, and especially the Lemon/Ginger variety, we came across these when holidaying and HAD to buy them. People's taste buds vary but our group all found the balance of lemon and ginger REALLY complimented each other as opposed to one trying to gain dominance

What a lovely cuppa, I don't have it too strong as can taste a bit bitter. It's nice hot or cold , would recommend

Firstly, in terms of flavour profile, I feel this drink is quite driven by the ginger. In that sense it feels almost like a more warming drink. The lemon is a little more background than I prefer generally, often with the more expensive teas of which this creeps toward, you find a little more freshness. These teas sit in the middle for me between the more standard herbal teas, and the high end teas. To be fair, that's about where it's priced. I do think it may work well as a gently brewed then cooled cold brew for warmer days, and it may benefit in that sense from the adding of some fresh lemon. Still a nice tea, though. The packaging itself is fun and bright, and the tea bags are individually wrapped. Four stars from me. ⭐⭐⭐⭐👍

Great taste

Absolutely gorgeous tea

This is now the second Dorset Tea product I’ve tried, the previous one (Wild about mint) was really lovely – and, so is this one! We do drink quite a lot of infusion teas, including Lemon and Ginger, so was very keen to give this a go. The teabags are very nicely packaged, and individually wrapped for total freshness, and made with good quality pure (no nasty additives) ingredients. The taste is really good, better than expected. I can honestly say this is the best Lemon and Ginger tea I’ve tried, due to the vibrant, natural flavours, particularly the lemon element (which is generally quite weak). This really is lovely tea. The pack consists of 4 x boxes of 20 x individually wrapped teabags, which – it’s good to see, are totally plastic-free, and therefore biodegradable. We both tend to drink infusion teas during the day, and last thing at night, which are far better for digestion than excessive regular tea and coffee. Unlike ‘regular’ tea and coffee, natural infusion teas aid hydration too. Overall, these are really great quality, full of flavour teabags. They’re pretty good value for this quality, and are a proper premium alternative run of the mill Lemon and Ginger teabags. I will definitely be buying these again. I hope you have found this helpful.

This review is for 4 x boxes of Dorset Tea, ginger and lemon tea bags. Each 40g box contains 20 tea sachets. That is a total of 80 fruit infusion tea bags for the current price of 11.99. That equates to £3 per box and 15p per tea bag. I would say this this is on the higher end of herbal tea bags. Each tea bag comes in its own sachet, so these are great for adding to you bag for taking into work. The tea is made by a genuine Dorset company in Wimborne. These foraged fruit bags include ginger, lemon peel, lemongrass, linden flowers and blackberry leaves. Herbal tea wouldn’t usually be my drink of choice, but these are a lovely drink. Once brewed for a few minutes, the bags produce a lovely claret coloured and fruity flavoured drink. I was really impressed and really enjoyed them. I’ve got a bit of a sweet tooth, so added some sugar to my infusions. Furthermore, there is no plastic in the tea bags themselves, so you’re safe in the knowledge that everything can be recycled. As the marketing blurb says - ‘simply pop them in your council food waste bin.’ If I was an avid herbal tea drinker, I would certainly look out for this company again.
