As the hours wane in 2018 I'm getting ready to have some tea. That means you get to enjoy another cup of my countdown of my favorite tea flavors. I do realize that some of these might sound yucky if you're considering what a similarly-named candy might taste like, but it's not that way with the tea. Here's a really good case in point. #7: Licorice Spice No, this tea does not taste like candy. Yes, it does have a licorice flavor to it, but not like biting into a Good 'n' Plenty. It does have a slightly sweet flavor to it as well, but as I said it's not an overpowering artificially-flavored candy feeling. I found this in a tea aisle by accident one day and thought it might taste good. I was wrong. It tastes great. Of course, you have to have an appreciation for licorice to enjoy it, but still I find it quite enjoyable. Additionally, I think it's very soothing to a sore throat. There's something about licorice that does that to the throat. Not everybody's cup of tea, pardon the pun, but it is mine! Licorice Spice From Stash Tea The Felice Brothers have half of it...don't know if I'd be brave enough to try cherry licorice tea:

It’s not my cup of tea, but enjoy it. I love jasmine and rose hip tea.

Nope never heard this before. My all-time childhood favorite was strawberry licorice. The tea does sound interesting.
