HARNEY & SONS Bangkok (Green Tea with Thai Flowers)

 I first had this tea in Oregon, when visiting my sister.  I thought it was really good and I purchased some loose leaf tea that day.  It was called Bangkok.  Then out one day at Target I thought this sounded good too, so I purchased it.  I have come to discover that Bangkok and Green Tea with Thai Flowers are the SAME TEA!!!!
I have read that some people make this tea cold, I wonder if using a coconut milk and making it could would be good.  I may have to try that next!!!

Our Review Bangkok
Many of the blends used in our flavored green teas are what might be considered sweet, as in a dessert. So, Mike wanted to do a tea that was more “savory.” Being a big fan of Thailand, he decided to lean on the flavors found in many Thai dishes (at least in the States), and that is what we have blended into the green tea: ginger for spice, lemongrass for some citrus flavors, and coconut for creaminess. It all comes together into a lovely tea. With our importation of coconut water, we get over to Bangkok at least once a year, and it is an amazing city. This confirms our opinion of choosing to honor the city and the cuisine of Thailand.
