Review of Zingiber Ginger Coconut Rooibos Tea

I'm normally not a fan of coconut-flavored teas, but the coconut in this blend is very subdued, and the dominant tones are rooibos and spice.
I notice that the ingredient list contains both sugar and artificial flavoring, both of which I'm not a huge fan of, but this blend is barely sweet, and it did not have much of an artificial smell or flavor.
The dominant quality is the rooibos and ginger. Spicy aroma, and surprisingly tangy flavor. I thought it might even contain a dash of hibiscus, because of the sourness and cooked fruit aroma, but apparently it does not.
This is not the sort of blend I would normally like, but I thought it exceptionally well-executed for what it is. It is one of the cheapest blends sold by Teavana, but I still found it to be somewhat overpriced, especially for a blend that contains artificial flavoring.
