Buddha Teas Organic Papaya Leaf Tea - OU Kosher, USDA Organic, CCOF Organic, 18 Bleach-Free Tea Bags

This isn't the most amazing tasting tea, but it's not bad, either. I don't typically drink sweetened drinks or eat/drink things with artificial sweeteners, so I don't find this tea terribly bitter. It does get more bitter the longer you steep it, so I steep it for 4 minutes. I drink it without honey, but a little honey and a tiny pinch of salt would correct the bitter flavor.I find it tastes better than most digestive teas. My body likes it better, too.

I add a teabag in hot water in a french press. I don't use the press just the container. I let the tea bag sit in the hot water so that it gets very dense in flavor. I then pour a little in a 20 oz glass (one third full) then add in cold Apple Juice (two thirds full), a splash of Apple Cider Vinegar, and three drops of Organic Monk fruit. It is amazingly tasty! I store the remaining Papaya tea in a thermos for reuse whenever I crave it again. Be advised... Papaya Leaf Tea is known for adding additional platelets to your blood. This means it seals leaky veins. For example, if you have any blood blooms on the back of your hands they clear up very rapidly when you drink this regularly. It is important to note that adding platelets MAY cause clotting for people susceptible to clots. So check with your doctor if you are on a Statin because of restricted blood flow in your clogged veins.

This tea was very fresh. For me, I did not like the flavor, which tasted a bit harsh. It is an acquired taste I believe, but the quality of the product was obviously good and if papaya fans like this taste I would recommend it.

This is a very soothing, mild tea that settles my stomach well. Won't keep you up. VERY mild flavor.

Drank 1-2cups a day and this tea brought my platelets up from 70,000 count to 90,000 within 2 weeks. Natural way to increase platelet count. It does have a very bitter taste but I added raw honey to give it a better taste.

Sadly, Product arrived crushed on all sides.Delivery however, was prompt.

The papaya leaf tea is very good . I’ve been drinking it hot and iced. It came quick and was packaged well.I originally gave five stars because of reasons above. However the second box I purchased a few weeks later was very disappointing. I have brewed six of the bags and five of them broke open so it had to be strained to drink. But I wasn’t able to drink any of the six o brewed because they were incredibly bitter. I don’t know why the first box I purchased was excellent but the second seemed as if it may have been old tea. I will probably purchase it again and hope it is as good as the first box. I will try to rate again if I do.

After much research into Gout and gout prevention home remedies, I decided to try some papaya leaf tea. I constantly watch my diet and avoid anything that I find flares it up. As I already enjoy a daily tea, I decided to give this a try. Since I started drinking Buddha Teas' Papaya Leaf tea, I have had no flare ups in 2 months. Whether or not it was because I started drinking this, I cannot say. This tea was very mild and pleasant with a mildly sweet flavor. I do enjoy it very much and will continue to drink at least 3 times a week. Great product!! Already have ordered 3 more boxes. :-)
