Description: Calling all beach bunnies...you are going to flip out over this tea. It’s amost excellent blend of tropical fruit, coconut and spices. It’s sweet and mega creamy, just like a totally primo piña colada. And if you really want to get amped, try freezing it into ice cubes and putting them in your blender with agave and a little coconut milk. It’s, like, off the wall. Take it from the big kahuna: this is one wave you definitely want to ride. Toes on the nose, dudes!

Steph's Thoughts:
New month means new tea! So, of course, after my job interview, which was, conveniently, near the mall, I hightailed it over to pick up some Hot Tropic!
I must admit, I'm not a huge piña colada fan, but it looked so pretty, and smelled so good. I kind of wanted to take the chunks out of the container and just eat them like trail mix. But I figured it would be bad form.
Even though there's no pineapple in this tea, the flavours of pineapple and coconut come out strongly. It definitely tastes like summer. If you like piña coladas, you will love this tea. The anise flavour adds a very nice little touch. It's not overwhelming at all.
While this is not a tea that I would gravitate towards every day, it's definitely refreshing. It doesn't require any sweetener, as it's plenty sweet enough on its own.
Verdict: Not bad. For Piña Colada lovers!
