Most
people are amazed at how good the tea tastes with no after taste
or side effects and drink it straight without adding anything to it.
Taheebo tea by itself has a slightly sweet taste. You can add anything you wish to the tea, and, because the tea has such a mild flavor, you'll immediately change the taste. However, if you're fighting a life-threatening disease such as diabetes or cancer, you wouldn't want to add something like sugar which would feed the disease.
The tea has a mild pleasant flavor, but a three year old for example, has not yet acquired a taste for any kind of tea, regardless how good it tastes. In these cases, parents routinely cook the tea with crushed blueberries, or other fruit, and it tastes just like the fruit.
