[Tea Review] Vida Pour Tea's Organic Rooibos Apple Pie Chai


Next up for the awesome Vida Pour tea fall blends that I got to try is their Organic Appple Pie Chai Rooibos. I am a sucker for chai or spiced teas, and even more so when they smell like apple pie. This tea has an amazing smell and makes you want to make a cup to enjoy with some vanilla ice cream to go along. 


This tea is a Rooibos blend with dried apples and chai spices (cloves, cinnamon, and so on.) It has a great apple smell, with cinnamon and clove scents, and just smells yummy. The taste is also amazing! It has a great cinnamon apple taste to go along with the rooibos tea, it is light and not too sweet and really hits the spot on a cold afternoon. 



This tea looks beautiful. I had to use my tiniest infuser since it is Rooibos. It has dried apples, and cloves and cinnamon and is just so pretty to look at, tea wise, and you just want to sit and smell the amazing aroma it lets off. If you want to check out this amazing tea it can be purchased at Vida Pour Tea, in Greensboro, NC. This was a special blend made for fall, so you will have to possibly ask for it to be made. They sell on their webpage and in their store, so even if you are not in NC. you can still get some yummy tea!

[Tea Review] Short and Stout Tea's "Pumpkin Spice" Rooibos


I looked long and hard for all types of different teas to try. This Pumpkin Spice Rooibos comes from Short and Stout Tea in Guilderland NY. Short and Stout is a tea shops specializing in different teas, drinks, bubble teas, and baked goods, they sell their loose teas in their shop as well as serve them and have a nice cafe style area to sit and enjoy them.


This tea has a great nutty, pumpkin smell to it. The bag shown is a 2 oz sampler and sells for $3.00 US. The tea itself looks great, it has a lovely reddish/brown color to it, with all types of extra goodies added in to make the tea taste amazing! 


The color of the tea is a lovely red and the taste is nutty with hints of pumpkin. I generally add some honey to rooibos tea and did the same for this one since I needed that extra sweetener to it.  


This was a great change up from all the black and green teas I had been drinking since the taste is so different from them. And I love how Short and Stout puts all the ingredients right on the front of the bag, so you know exactly what you are drinking. 


You can learn more about Short and Stout on their webpage here! They make a variety of teas, and the ones I have tried from them do not disappoint in taste or in price range.
