Advantages: Tastes lovely and refreshing :)

Disadvantages: A bit expensive at full price :(

As I have got older I have really started enjoying the taste of tea, it is really different and more refreshing than a lot of fizzy drinks.

Coffee however, no, it's awful, lol!

One of the teas I have chosen when we have gone shopping is 'Twinings Everyday tea' and in a lovely lemon box and gold writing it looks really lovely and appealing!

This was on offer recently in Morrisons for about £1.20 which was 60p off its usual price so it made it a bargain buy to try :)

There are 250g contents with 80 bleached teabags with really big perforations in them that lets the tea flood out into freshly boiled water...

Made by tea & coffee merchants R.Twinings in London since 1706 this tea is made by Appt to Her Majesty so it must be good...

My box has a best before date of Dec 2010 as with all dried food/drinks these tea leaves has been dehydrated so will keep for ages in their dried form without losing the taste, plus the box was sealed so will save longer.

Having only one calorie per cup and described as having a 'wonderfully refreshing and flavoursome taste' Twinings write up on the back of the pack says they choose from the finest tea leaves that are then carefully selected and then blended to produce a traditional every day tea suitable for all times of the day.

I would say that is very true. This is a really light flavoured tea and quite a light amber colour when brewed too. The tea smells lovely when you first open the pack; the aroma is mouth-watering as it smells so fresh!

From a merchant that has been blending tea for over three centuries you would expect this tea to taste delicious and it really does!

Thirst quenching and full of flavour it seems light on tannin that I don't like to taste too much of as I think it makes my mouth really dry and leave an unpleasant aftertaste.

This Everyday tea doesn't do that. The teabags are square and you can clearly see the tiny pieces if dried tealeaves and you can see them rattling around before you dunk the tea into the cup :)

I really like this flavour and hope we get it again, it is not too strong and tastes really refreshing even with sugar and milk. I let mine stew for a couple of minutes and it turns out just right!

Five stars for Twinings Everyday tea, they are right when they say it is fine for any time of the day...

Summary: A really refreshing cuppa! ;-p
