ANY SUGGESTIONS?????
 
My husband & I are very avid tea drinkers between having herbal teas &
dessert teas. We have such variety of flavors. But the question is.. we
have tried the "Celestial Seasonings" in Strawberry/Kiwi & enjoyed it.
We have also tried "St Dalfour" in strawberry which we were not
satisfied with at all. Does anyone have any great tasting strawberry tea
brands?? I have only found these 2 brands in strawberry. Thanks so much!

I haven't tried it, but have considered slicing strawberries,
dehydrating them, and adding them to a quality, loose, black tea.
After a couple of weeks or so, this might make a nice dessert tea. I
assume the same could be done with many fruits. Personally, I'm not a
fan made of teas made of anything but camellia sinensis. I don't know
the main ingredient of your Celestial Seasonings tea, but it's
possible that it's something else altogether.

Not much help, I know, but something to think about.

Sounds like a great way to make a very fruity-tasting Strawberry. However,
I am far too impatient for that.

I take dried fruit and a tea that matches. Here are some of the combos I
have tried:

Cranberry Orange Darjeeling (I have made it with Rooibos, too.)
Mango, Papaya, and Pineapple Oolong (I need a better tea for this, any
ideas?)
Date Assam
Strawberries & Kiwi Ceylon
Lemon & Tangerine Pai Mu Tan (white tea)

Just go for it, and don't be afraid to steep it a heck of a lot longer than
you otherwise would. These are good iced, too.

Cheers,
Christina
