BREAKFAST TEA. RICH. FLORAL.

Eloquent Earl Grey Frosted with Lavender & Vanilla.

“This blend is so decadent. It’s quite a smooth flavor and somehow sweet (pure magic how you managed that!). The touch of lavender with the bergamot is divine. My preference for black tea is to be served hot, but this one is a treat cold as well. No need for any sweeteners.”

But does it taste like cake?

Kinda. There are definitely subtle hints of the flavors you find it cake, but it smells more of cake than it tastes and that isn't a bad thing! This brew is smooth without being too strong of everything, the flavors go together quite nicely. To me this brew reminds me of birthday cake, because it puts. a smile on your face! Definitely try this is my favorite non-fruity blend.

Thank you for this wonderful review of Old-Fashioned Birthday Cake!!

Delightful!

This is such a delightful blend! It smells exactly like vanilla cake, and drinking it makes me think of having high tea at cute tea house. The blend of vanilla, lavender, and earl grey just puts that whole experience in a cup for me. I prefer to have my tea iced with a little stevia, but this is also delightful hot with a little milk for even more of a tea house feel.

A champion Earl Grey

The blend's name and the powerful lavender smell of the looseleaf might trick you into thinking this is not, firstly, a perfectly good Earl Grey. You would be wrong -- the headlining lavender and vanilla play supporting roles for the timeless black tea center-staging, but do so wonderfully, adding a smooth finish to a normally plucky taste. I prefer my Earl Greys hot and black; while the Old Fashioned Birthday Cake is no exception, if you wanted to go a dessert-y route, I think a sweet cream would probably go well with it.

Game Changer

I’m a huge coffee drinker, but recently have tried to get into herbal tea. I have tried all of the generic teas in the “sample packs” from like Walmart, and didn’t get the hype of hot tea. UNTIL I tried Piper and Leaf. Just like coffee beans, the quality of this tea makes a HUGE difference!! I have never enjoyed my daily bev more! I love warm, earthy flavors and this tea is the best tea I have ever had!! I ordered it, received it very quickly and within a week it’s gone (because, not to be dramatic, I am literally addicted to it.) 100% recommend for lavender fans!! Plus, a small business of high quality and excellent flavors!! Love love love!

Wow, thank you so much for your review! We get so excited whenever we hear from new fans of our tea. :) We love to Serve the Joy! So happy that you're pleased!

Old-Fashioned Birthday Cake (Creamy Lavender-Earl Grey)

This smells delicious dry, and brews to be one of my factor Earl Grey variations I’ve ever had. I like to have mine with a bit of sugar and a small splash of milk, to enhance the creamy-vanilla note. It’s smooth and none of the flavors overpower the other. The tea leaves and flavors are high quality, and I’m sure I will crave this one often! I haven’t had it iced yet, it imagine that would work well.

I wish someone had ever made a birthday cake for me that was this good! It reminds me of modern speciality bakery layered cakes with from-scratch frosting.

Thank you for your rave review! This is one of my all-time favorites, as well! With cream and sugar... nothing beats it. We're so happy you love it! P.S. -- definitely try it iced! You'll be obsessed!
