Thoughts:
I really love to drink chamomile in the evenings when I am winding down and no longer want caffeine. As much as I love it, I don’t drink it often because chamomile is in the same plant family as ragweed and I happen to have allergic reactions to ragweed. However, every now and then I treat myself to a cup. This particular chamomile has orange peel and a little bit of vanilla added to it which sounds like it would be a really wonderful tasting drink. I am sad to say that all I could taste was the chamomile and none of the orange peel or vanilla flavors came out. To top it off, the chamomile was quite light and not as strong as I normally prefer. I did enjoy my cup and I think this particular chamomile would make a nice, easy infusion since clean up is a breeze and all the chamomile pieces are contained inside the pyramid infuser. However, I don’t think I would keep this stocked up in my tea cupboard as there are other chamomile’s that I prefer.
