Stripteas...

Earlier in the month, just before Christmas I did a 'teatox', it was just after I went a little crackers in Belgium on the frites and cherry beer, so it was needed! Now, I'm a latte kinda gal... even at bootcamp I struggled without caffine for 7 days... headaches, grumpiness and all round moodiness, well more so than usual ... So I decided to give this one a try as it had a tea for aiding sleep! My insomnia is out of control... it's ridiculous! 

So... how did I fair? Well, I definitely lost weight the weeks I drank these... and I felt a lot less bloated... as I said I love my creamy lattes and I find most herbal teas taste like grass.. but that's me and my tiara more than anything else...

My top tip for these is to use a big mug, the more room they have to brew the better they taste, but that's just my opinion...

So there's three versions, you can buy them separately online but I wanted to give it my all so I went for the full set!
First up... Morning Wake Up... 

This contains, Chinese white tea, Yerba Maté, Lemongrass, Liquorice Root, Orange peel, Ginseng, Ginkgo Eucalyptus and Spearmint... Very refreshing and you can definitely taste the citrus fruits in it... I really liked this one, I drink my hot water and lemon every morning so it was a nice variation...

The midday tea... 

Honestly, I wasn't a fan... very fragrant and almost perfumey (?) for me... it contains, Chinese Oolong Tea, Hibiscus, Fennel Seeds, Pu-erh Black Tea, Rosehip, Apple pieces  Elderberries, Orange peel, Schisandra Berries, Black peppercorns and Blueberry flavour... and considering I love ALL berry fruits I really thought I'd love it but nope, just not for me but I stuck with it...

Lastly the Sleep Tight tea... 

This one I LOVED! This contains Rooibos, Ginger, Ashwagandha root, Chamomile, Lemon balm, Peppermint leaves, hawthorn, Vanilla pieces, lavender and Vanilla flavour... and yes it definitely was much better for me than my usual mug of tea on the way to bed... it smelled lovely too... anything vanilla and I'm there...

Would I do it again... yes but I don't think I'd go for the day time tea... it just wasn't for me... but to mix them with my usual peppermint, camomile or lemon tea, yes... 

The killer for me is I love coffee... and I love milky coffee... but not drinking them made me less bloated and you won't dunk a biccie in them! 

Worth a try! Check them out online at http://stripteas.com >>> HERE ! <<<
