What is the difference between "Natural" and "Original" flavors? Can you add it to hot tea? Is this correct that you get 2 8 oz. containers? Thanks!

We bought the large size, 16 oz container, lemon flavor for $24. This has stevia added. But my kid broke out in rash with stevia, so we bought the PLAIN, without stevia nor flavor, that comes in small size 8 oz for $13. I like this better, just need to add 1 teas. of sugar to cut down the tartness. The PLAIN one would be best for tea.

All of their flavors are natural. Non GMO. The one I have is original and it basically has a lemony tart taste. Could be added to any tea I assume...

That depends on the kind of tea you are using and the potency you are looking for. I've used this to make a 1.5 liter size pitcher of sun tea and I've also used it to make a 18 ounce size of hot tea. You will have to experiment a bit to find your flavor level. Since it is big, you have more room to "play". Sorry I couldn't give you a more direct answer, hope this helps

I doesn't claim to be on the packaging but that claim really doesn't hold much water in my opinion anyway. What does "natural" really mean these days, it's not regulated and anyone can put that on their label. When I read the ingredients, it all looks healthy to me. No artificial colors or flavors and no nasty preservatives that are not allowed on the Feingold program that my family follows.

what do you mean by smallest amount? like how many tea flowers or the amount of water? in my expecence the smaller of amount of water the more flavor you will have. but really this tea is good no matter how much water you put in the tea. it is a great tea.

With the large sized tea bag, I use an automatic iced tea maker which makes 3 quarts of iced tea. I put 3 large tea bags in the steeping compartment. I like a weaker tea. I put ice in the pitcher but no additional water. I do not boil water and then steep the tea. If I did, I would not add water, only ice. I control the strength by how much tea I use. If I use regular sized tea bags in my automatic iced tea maker, I use 3 regular sized tea bags per quart. Again, adjusting the strength to your liking. The ice dilutes the tea enough to not have to add water to the brewed tea.

This is straight powdered green tea - nothing added so I'd concur on what Christian Killion said! This is a very economical product, a 1/2 TBSP or less added to 15oz of 1% milk and what ever sweetener you want to add makes a great Milk Tea. But this product is nothing but green tea powder, not milk tea powder, so there's nothing added that I can tell!

I make mine strong. I use a tea spoon I got from teavana. I measured and it is a teaspoon I use 1per 8 ounces. If I mix it with a flavor I use 2 spoon of Irish and 1 spoon of the flavor and mix it with 16 to 20 ounces of water.

Wouldn't that depend on the type of tea being used and how much is needed to brew a pot to your taste? I use it to brew rosehips tea in a 2 quart pan. I use different amounts depending how the rosehips is sent to me... chopped (1/2 a teaball) or broken blossoms (3/4 teaball). How much tea do you use to brew a 48 oz pot?

First of all this is a 2 quart pitcher, not 64 ounces, or 1 gallon. I had a problem with this when I ordered it. I ended up getting two of these because I can put in the door of my refrigerator. A gallon wouldn't have fit anywhere in my frig. It has a mesh insert which screws into the lid, which is where you put the tea. I use the Twinings English Classic cold brew tea bags. You could also use loose leaf tea. it works very well, the only issue I have is cleaning it. You have to take the clear rubber rings(gaskets) out of the lid and the part that screws onto the pitcher itself. They tend to get moldy very easily. I use three bags, cold water, and let it sit for about an hour. It makes really good tea.

I would not add it to iced tea. It only goes well with dairy products. I've mixed it with milk, almond milk and yogurt.

The manufacturer did NOT discontinue the decaf blend. They did, however, discontinue ALL of the "retail-pack" items... The retail size were little yellow boxes with 4 small filter packs inside (each filter pack was 0.33oz). The 1oz filter packs (box of 50) you see here was always available, but was typically purchased by restaurants and the like (and tea addicts). At Coffee Wholesale USA, we have been selling Paradise tea since 1999, and have fielded many similar questions.Long story short, the reason it appears to be expensive is because it's not the pack size you're used to seeing. Actually, when you figure it out as $ per ounce, the 50/1oz pack size has always been less expensive... The manufacturer did NOT discontinue the decaf blend.

Hi William, The spice packs that come with the kit are all "original" flavor. I buy additional spice packs and mix them together to make a delicious flavored jerky my son and and his college room-mates love to eat. I usually make a 3 lb. batch at a time using 1 spice pack per pound. So, I make the boys a batch of 2-hot & spicy and 1-teriyaki and I'll make a less spicy batch for my wife and her friends when they go hiking of 2-teriyaki and 1-original. This gun kit works really good and is easy to clean too. I think I remembered writing a review for this item that would be posted by "skoot61". Have A Happy Easter!

Greetings, Organo Gold sells a variety case which includes 6-Boxes OG Black; 6-Boxes OG Mocha; 6-Boxes OG Latte; 6-Boxes Hot Chocolate; 6-Boxes Green Tea for $576.00 (shipping & handling included). However, you may customize your order to meet your needs, but it does not come standard in a case. Let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Thanks! taragalbreth(myorganogold)

The directions on the box explain the ratios of bag to water, but unless you like your tea extra weak, use at least two tea bags per gallon! It's great tea, I enjoy knowing it doesn't have pesticides in it, and it tastes very rich.

Try buying the Lipton yellow label loose leaf tea from amazon. I got a pound for ~$10 and it works great (http://smile.amazon.com/dp/4639725043/) and should make many gallons of tea. The taste is similar to Lipton bags but smoother (and better) in my opinion. I've been using 2 1/2 tablespoons of tea per pitcher and brewing for 4-5 minutes.

I have only used this to make blended green tea chillers. I would just start with 8 oz. Warm milk and add 1Tbs. (Start with that and go from there).

It doesn't come with Kombucha tea, or at least it didn't when I ordered it months ago. I was confused by this this when I first started as well. You can actually use white vinegar instead of the Kombucha tea for your first batch. You can then use the tea you get from the first batch for your subsequent batches. Also, one thing I was nervous about was purchasing Kombucha tea to use it for the first batch. I had heard mixed theories about this online, and some people felt pretty strongly that the Kombucha you get from the store would/could ruin your batch. I never tried it, and the vinegar seemed to work just fine for me. Hope this helps. It doesn't come with Kombucha tea, or at least it didn't when I ordered it months ago.
