Refreshing, probably better iced with sugar. This is more a soothing cup for afternoons than a before bed steep, like I am doing now. Mint is too peppy for pre-sleep drinking.
Although this is enjoyable, it's not unique or special. I am not getting the promised lemon which might have turned this from a generic minty tea to something a little more special.
Rating: 2/4 leaves

1=Bleh! not again if it were free
