Here was another hotel/motel tea from my spring to early summer travels, now just getting around to trying and reviewing. Not being a big fan of either lemon or ginger, I nonetheless found this tea to be a great balance between them.
The dry aroma was one of the most pronounced I've sniffed in an herbal tea that didn't have mint or cinnamon, with both the lemon and ginger showing out. In-cup, the tea steeps a semi-opaque yellow color (no surprise there), with a nice aroma and flavor balance intact. The ginger is a spicier version with a warming effect, which helps. I only detected the hibiscus in the aftertaste, which imparted a slightly sour note I've detected in more overtly hibiscus-infused blends, such as the "Zinger" line from Celestial Seasonings, and some others. However, the drink itself didn't seem overly sour.
For true fans of either or both primary flavors, this should be worthwhile pickup in retail stores or online at present prices, despite my somewhat modest overall rating.

The dry teabag smells strongly of ginger with a lemony background. Adding water really brings out the lemongrass. My first thought is that it smells like a kind of Thai soup.
Ginger tends to overpower other flavors, but in this case there's a nice balance between the ginger and lemongrass. I can taste the lemon and citric acid, but the hibiscus and safflower are far enough into the background that I can't pick them out.
The aroma at this point is almost peppery and the ginger is spicy on the tongue. Oddly, the lemon lingers after the ginger begins to fade, so there's a fruity finish to balance the spice. This herbal tea is pleasant to drink.

I actually really like this tea. The ginger gives it just the right kick when you're craving something with a tart spiciness. This herbal tea is pretty solid, in my opinion.

Yick. Sorry but this has a medicinal ginger bite that I do not enjoy. Not my "bag" baby! Too strong for me.

I do not particularly like this tea.

I want to like this tea more. Very strong ginger kick, which I enjoy, but a lemongrassy/medicinal foretaste, which I don't. I want something soothing yet spicy after dinner; this makes me feel like I'm being wormed.

Very strong aroma, mostly of ginger, and a lot of lemongrass. A hint of tanginess but overall pretty smooth and not too sour. I really like this one.
This tea can be used for a second infusion or even a third, but all but the first cup have only a weak lemon quality and are mostly like ginger tea. If you want a milder tea, you can easily brew a pot of several cups from a single bag, let it steep a long time, and it will be quite flavorful.
