If you are a tea lover, and your sweet tooth is dictating your purchases, you might want to try Lipton’s Vanilla Caramel Truffle. This is one of Lipton’s pyramid tea bag varieties. I have to admit, I like to have a dessert-like tea on the shelf to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Lipton does a great job of packaging their pyramid tea selections. They are easily noticeable on the grocery store shelves. The pictures and design on the box do a good job of enticing you to buy the tea. The pyramid tea bag is something out of the norm. Therefore, you don’t feel like you’re drinking the same-old-same-old. Now, the dried tea did not smell as sweet as I anticipated. I thought since the product is said to contain real pieces of caramel, it would have a sweeter scent to it. However, the aroma I was expecting was not released until the product hit the boiling water. Unfortunately, the flavor I was expecting never seemed to release. The tea certainly did not taste bad. It just wasn’t up to my expectations. You may want to give it a try, but I recommend drinking a tea you know you like, and going out for ice cream when you feel the need for something sweet.
