Today’s prompt for Vegan MoFo 2016 is Multi-color. And with today’s tea, I think that fits perfectly. This tea is just gorgeous with all of the different color pop. Truly a multi color tea if I have to say so myself!
The tea of the moment here at Sororitea Sisters is Homestead Peach by Winterwoods Tea which was part of our Amoda Box. Homestead Peach by Winterwoods Tea is an herbal blend consisting of (mostly) organic ingredients…strawberry leaf, dried peaches, hibiscus, lemon peel, orange peel, rose hips, and peach extract.
I was surprised at the more laid-back, mellow aroma that this herbal tisane had. It’s wasn’t overpowering. It was subtly peach and citrus. I absolutely LOVED the fact that the peach FLAVOR of this was REAL. Not fake and/or chemically. I also LOVED that there was hardly any hibiscus in there. There seemed to be JUST ENOUGH to give it a little color in the cup and end-sip pucker on the tongue.
Homestead Peach by Winterwoods Tea was mouth wateringly (YES, I made that end in “LY”) tasty and gently flavored. I enjoyed this hot but even more cold. Homestead Peach by Winterwoods Tea is a fantastic herbal!
Just another wonderful reason why signing up for Amoda’s monthly tea box is the perfect way to enjoy teas you may have never even thought about trying or knew about. Perfect for that tea enthusiast on your holiday shopping list!

Green Bluff Green from Winterwoods Tea via Amoda Monthly Subscription
Green Bluff Green from Winterwoods Tea was part of the Amoda Box I received and I have to say I was THRILLED because I had not had many or any experiences with tea from Winterwoods Tea before!
This tea is made up of Jasmine Green Tea, Green Rooibos, Jasmine Flowers, Dried Apples and Calendula. That’s right…Green Bluff Green from Winterwoods Tea…a green tea and green rooibos blend! The green tea was mellow. The green rooibos was, too! They blended well, tho, to create a taste of its own! The Apple is also subtle but without it this flavor would have a completely different taste! The Jasmine is on the sweeter side. It’s NOT bitter in the slightest! Green Bluff Green from Winterwoods Tea is a pleasant surprise.
As I continue to sip I find I am liking Green Bluff Green from Winterwoods Tea more and more. I’m amazed at the blending expertise that went into this flavor combo. Everything plays it’s role well. This is tasty hot or cold. It’s on the sweeter side and I really find that enjoyable and surprising for this Jasmine flavored Green Tea and Green Rooibos blend! I can totally see why Amoda chose to include this tea in one of their boxes!

Happy Pumpkin Tea from October’s Amoda Tea Monthly Box
It’s that time of year again: pumpkin season! I’ll admit, I’m a bit of a sucker for all things pumpkin spice, so it’s no surprise that I’m drinking pumpkin tea. But with all the ridiculous pumpkinacolpyse products that come out this time of year, let’s see how Happy Pumpkin Tea from Amoda teas holds up.
For one, this tea has actual pumpkin as a main ingredient. You can actually see orange pumpkin pieces in the dry leaf, and the starchy, sweet potato flavor is forward in the hot brew.
In addition to the usual spice suspects– cinnamon, ginger, and cloves– the blend also has allspice and cocoa nibs. The allspice builds on the traditional chai flavors, giving an unexpected peppery note, most prevalent in the fragrance. The cocoa nibs play well with the pumpkin, bringing out a brown sugar sweetness from both ingredients. Ceylon black tea gives this blend body and brews up surprisingly smooth.
Happy Pumpkin Tea is definitely worth a try for any pumpkin enthusiast.
We just wanted to take a moment and welcome MrsPremise to the SororiTea Sisters! We hope you enjoy her reviews as much as we do!
