Orange Spice Cake Rooibos
Dr. Tea's Tea Garden & Herbal Emporium
Rating: 15.5/20

With its combination of cinnamon, cardamom, bright chunks of real orange, colorful pink peppercorns and the rich, natural red of South African Rooibos, Dr. Tea’s Orange Spice Cake tea is visually one of the most stunning blends you’re likely to encounter. Its taste, likewise, has a richness and complexity that you’ll want several pots to fully unlock: layers of sweetness and spice that interweave to produce a cup with kick. You can easily see how this brew fits in with the diet regimen recommended by Dr. Tea (a.k.a., herbal guru Mark Ukra), which exhorts utilizing tea as an appetite suppressant: we found that sipping Orange Spice Cake instead of eating a slice could still make for a satisfying snack, and at less than five calories a cup, one that’s much kinder to the waistline. Finally, here’s a way to have your cake and drink it, too.

Price: $15.50 for 3.5 oz.
