I choose the teabag version of this cleansing tea, but it is also offered in the non-bag, which you can use your own steeper (?) I am unsure if that is the correct term? But I don't ever use it, so please excuse me if I incorrectly addressed it.Okay, back to this tea, I have tried a very dif brand that was only available at a vitamin store & very inconvenient to obtain? So I stopped using, but this tea came in a nice quantity of 28 bags, a good portion & available to order here? Very helpful & accessible!I used two (2) bags as I like my tea strong, do not add anything to the cup, so it needs to have an agreeable taste? Which I am pleased to say indeed! The flavor was somehow "flowery"? If the understanding in my meaning there translates properly. There is a "flowery" taste that I cannot describe exactly, but it must be possibly the lemongrass it contains? Or perhaps the Dandelion, maybe? Anyway, all combine with a very palatable cup of effective tea, and without the addition of sweetener? It was not at all bitter to me, nor did I feel it needed anything other.The cleansing effect was not startling or approached alarmingly? It was just quietly efficient a few hours after & noticeable in a small voice if you follow my dialogue, that is, lol.All just fine, and I enjoyed the flavor much more than the other I referred to. My only wish would be if a caffeine venue would be made available?I subbed out tea in place of morning coffee, which I guess you switch out one productive element for another? But it would be very nice to have both, even though I know you don't always get what you want, true that! But even with a lack of a boost? It supplied another type & very pleased with all benefits.
