Good stuff, definately has a kick!, April 21, 2009
This review is from: Gold Kili All Natural Instant Ginger Caffeine Free Herbal Tea Drink Sampler Pack (20 Sachets) - 12.6 Oz (Misc.)
I got this when I was looking for a good ginger tea. Admittedly, I'm sure it was my error in not reading closely enough, but do note that this is not a tea nor does it come in tea bags. It's more like a granulated powder. That said, it dissolves easily in hot water and it quite tasty. Initially the taste was a little too sharp for me, but I have discovered that with some french vanilla creamer it actually makes an excellent chai type drink.

Not just a tasty drink... it's magic!, January 8, 2007
This review is from: Gold Kili All Natural Instant Ginger Caffeine Free Herbal Tea Drink Sampler Pack (20 Sachets) - 12.6 Oz (Misc.)
OK, not really magic, but it sure does make you feel better when you have a cold. It also does wonders at soothing a sore tummy.
Honestly, the first time I tried this drink, I thought it smelled kind of funny. But once I took a couple of sips, the warmth of the ginger, and the sweet taste of honey, all combined and cleared my sinuses, soothed my sore throat, and made me feel really relaxed. Now, it just smells like ginger and honey to me, and I know it will make me feel better.
I also drink it when I have an upset stomach. The ginger makes you feel like all your stomach muscles relax and it warms you up from the inside. It settles queasiness too.
But don't just think of this as a medicinal drink. It's tasty, and is a great addition to my collection of tea. Even when I'm not feeling a cold or a stomach ache, it's a great way to warm up and relax!

excellent medicinal tea, February 8, 2008
This review is from: Gold Kili All Natural Instant Ginger Caffeine Free Herbal Tea Drink Sampler Pack (20 Sachets) - 12.6 Oz (Misc.)
Nothing helps a cold more than ginger tea. Ginger tea is good plain, or you can add some lemon juice or orange juice. I used to go to the trouble of making my own (boiling ginger root in a glass pot [never metal, which interacts badly with ginger] for half an hour). Well not any more. This tea has a nice strong ginger flavor and is moderately sweet. I would actually prefer it a little less sweet [I even take coffee without sugar], but most people will probably like it just as it is. Ginger is good for colds, stomach upsets, and inflamation of any sort, including arthritic joints. A cachet of this tea would spice up a stew or curry as well if you don't have real ginger root around the next time you make one. I have tried a number of other commercial ginger teas, but they are not gingery enough. A great find.
