Makes delicious tea

Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2021

Color: 3 ozVerified Purchase

This makes such a delicious cup tea ! I love it. I bought it because I read where it is good to boost your immune system and good to make tea for when you have a cold. I had no idea it was so tasty too. I add one pod to regular tea and use two pods if I'm just making a cup with that alone. It's very economical ,this bag makes a lot of tea!

PHO

Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2021

Color: 3 ozVerified Purchase

My wife said she like Pho so I needed this as one of the ingredients. I'm not much of a licorice fan and the smell kind of put me off wondering if it would command the attention of the Pho as I'd not made it before. Happily is wan't the case. Wife really liked my version and all is well. I'd recommend.
