Mulled Wine flavour Instant Tea is available from instore in Whittards and also on their website. It typically costs £5.00 a tub of 500g and is typically available around Christmas time. However, this tea is often on special offer in-store, alongside all the other teas - eg on a 3 for 2. The tea comes in a cylindrical cardboard tub with a plastic lid. The tub is nicely decorated, as all the other instant teas are, so it does not feel like a big deal to have it out on display, also it is quite solid so stacks easily, especially you have other varieties of Whittards tea. The recommendations are that you mix 3 heaped teaspoons (approx 20g) per ...  Read the complete review

I'm not a tea drinker at all. From the few samples I've had of flavoured teas in my life, they just taste like hot water with a faint overtone, like if you didn't properly wash out a mug and got a Fairy Liquid taste to your drink. Ugh! So when my friend dragged me to Whittards, it wasn't really surprising that I was reluctant to try either of the sample teas on offer.

They are very easy to make, just put a few teaspoons into a mug, add boiling water and voila! Hot, tasty tea.

I am always on the look out for quirky things to buy for Christmas to keep in the house for visitors or to give people as gifts. I was browsing through Whittards at Bluewater last Christmas and came across this for £4.99. I was actually looking for nice tea pots to buy people, but I added this to my basket too. Whittards mulled wine flavoured tea comes in a round tub, with a plastic lift on and off lid. I wasn't sure what to expect but was surprised to see grains inside. I guess the name 'instant tea drink' should have given it away, but I obviously didn't have my brain switched on! I think I was expecting tea bags, or more the sort of tea you strain, but ...  Read the complete review
