This is a good tea. It’s the perfect blend of orange and mint. Tea Forte did well striking the balance without this tasting artificial.
Here’s the thing: mojitos are my favorite mixed drink. I would LOVE to try this tea with lime rather than orange. Although I enjoy oranges and mint on their own, I don’t adore the combination. It’s not bad. It’s just not fabulous. I’m glad I tried the combination, though.
The fact that this is a reasonably priced fair trade and organic tea is a huge bonus. It’s also a nice change to the chamomile and peppermint teas I normally drink at night. This is worth a try if you’re considering buying it.

I agree with you that I find lime and spearmint much more appealing than orange and spearmint. When I think of a mojito, I think lime, so I find it odd that they'd use orange more than lime.
Incidentally, I just tried my first flavored tea that had a lime flavoring, and I really liked it; it's the Citron Green from Adagio. I am a huge lime person; I almost never buy lemons, and I usually have quite a few limes on hand, and I use them for everything from drinks to fish to salads to soups.
