Tea tasting: Sally Lunn's Herbal Blood Orange

Today's tea is not one that you can order from the internet.  It's an in-house blend made by my favorite local tea shop, Sally Lunn's in Chester, NJ.

I made Herbal Blood Orange tea, brewed medium, with a teaspoon of clover honey.  What a very nice bit of comfort tea.  It's got an initial tang followed by a mouth full of delightful fruity sweetness.  It's almost like grown-up fruit punch.  Without the honey, the tang lasts longer, and citrus highlights emerge.  It's interesting and all, but I think I like the honeyed version better.
