Drink Me: Lana’s White Tea with Pineapple

When I was ordering some of the Snowflake Tea from Lana’s, I noticed that the shop also sells small samples of tea. You know what that means… I ordered a bunch.  Today I decided to try the White Tea with Pineapple.

From the website, White Tea with Pineapple includes white tea with flavoring and pineapple bits.  It is available in two sizes: 2oz for $13.00 and sample size for $3.00.

When I opened the package I smelled a slightly citrusy smell and I noticed the chunks of dried pineapple.  Once brewed I got a light tropical pineapple scent.  The tea itself was very mild tasting with the more delicate white tea and the pineapple- I think this would be another good iced summer blend.

I will say that I was a little bit disappointed in the sample size.  It seemed to only be enough to brew 1 – 1.5 cups of tea. I guess I’m a little spoiled by Adagio’s sample packs that cost about the same price and are enough for 2-5 cups of tea.  Lana’s sample size makes the price of a cup of tea close to $3 whereas the others are more justifiable at 60 cents to $1.50.  It seems more economical to me to buy the 2oz package, even if that means I have more tea to drink!
