Kathy's Iced Tea

One of our retail store customer, Kathy de MaCarty, gave us her favorite iced tea recipe.

In a saucepan put about 2 1/2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Take off the burner and add 1 heaping tablespoon of tea.

Add 1/4 to 1/3 cup of sugar (depending on your preferred sweetness).

Let stand for 10-15 minutes.

Fill a 1/2 gallon (2 quart) pitcher with ice. Put a strainer on the top and pour the tea over the ice. Fill to the top with cold water.

She said she loves the Almond Sugar Cookie iced this way as well as green teas with passion fruit nectar.

Wonderful for an upset tum 3/6/2022
This was one of the very first teas I tried when I still wasn't 100% sold on dark black teas. It's a delight with cream or without it, and it's so delicate and gentle a flavor that you can drink it easily on an upset stomach. It's soothing to the mind and body alike. I described it to my sister as a "cry into your mug" kind of tea for when you need a comforting pick-me-up, and I stand by it. The almond flavor is not particularly strong. If anything, the almond serves to mellow out the overall flavor profile more than push almond to the forefront, so don't go in expecting a punch to the face. I don't know that I'd pair it with any biscuits when it's just so nice on its own, but simple recipes work with it best.

Absolutely Soothing 12/8/2021
This tea just embodies the cozy and toasty feel of the holiday season. I can’t wait to get home and have a mug. They have this at a local store and I buy all the containers. I have it for my friends when they come over and give it as a gift. I cannot get enouh!
- Khari Wellman, NY
 
like almond cookie at Chinese Restaurant 9/21/2021
Great flavor/good for an everyday tea to drink all through the day. I normally don't like dessert teas, but this one is perfect----not too sweet or too strong.

ALMOND COOKIE 9/21/2021
THIS TEA TASTES JUST LIKE AN ALMOND COOKIE AT CHINESE RESTAURANT. A NICE DESSERT TEA, OR TO DRINK ALL DAY. HAS A FULL BODY, BUT NOT OVERLY SWEET OR OVERPOWERING.ONE OF MY FAVORITES.

Sweet Almond Heaven 3/25/2021
This tea quickly became one of my favorites! It has a delightful aroma and a lightly sweet almond flavor. Nothing overwhelms-just beautifully blended flavors for a perfect cup of tea.

Comfort Cup 1/12/2021
I love this tea, it's so comfy and tastes just like an almond sugar cookie. I'm really picky with my flavored black teas and don't like a lot of them but this one's amazing and I would like it as a permanent staple in my stash.

Pure Happiness in a Cup 9/9/2020
I was on the fence about ordering this tea. I wasn’t sure how the flavors would play off of each other. I’m so glad I did. So far it’s my favorite.

This tea will really satisfy your sweet tooth! 8/15/2020
When my sweet tooth starts aching, I brew a cup of this delightful tea!! Delicious with milk or alone. The real almond slivers in this blend give it an authentic flavor rather than being artificial tasting. I can tell you by experience that all of Simpson & Vail products are of the highest quality. I would confidently recommend this variety to my fellow tea lovers out there!
- Danielle Glass, NC
 
Delicious! 7/23/2020
It smells and tastes just like an almond sugar cookie! I will definitely be reordering this one. It doesn't need sugar or anything else.
- Cat, MD
 
Almond cookie dough tea 5/14/2020
This tea tastes EXACTLY like sugar cookies with an almond aftertaste. I don't know how they got that "cookie dough" taste in there... But it's the precise taste of slightly gooey cookie dough when you bite into a cookie. It's like exquisite torture. Also, there are almond nuts in here. This tea wants you to believe you're eating cookies, and it does a damn good job.
- Chandler, GA
 
Exquisite! 3/25/2020
This has to be the most delicious tea I have ever had! I hope you never stop making this tea. I have some almost every day. I can't get enough. It is absolutely delicious!
- Delia Scales, NJ
 
Almost there... 3/5/2020
I always hate leaving less than a 5 star review, but I try hard to share my thoughts honestly because I read the reviews of others. I’m having my first cup of Almond Sugar Cookie tea and since I’m a huge almond fan, I’ve been really anticipating it. My first sip, though, was just a little bit disappointing in that the almond flavor is not strong enough for my taste. I added just the tiniest drop of pure almond extract and with some stevia to sweeten, it’s now over the top!

Full Bodied Everyday Tea 2/19/2020
This is a great tea to have to start off the day. Nutty, full-bodied but not bitter, it has a nice finish and is pleasant to drink. I love starting the morning with this.
- K Loftin, UT
 
Special Treat Tea 10/5/2019
I like this tea in the afternoon or evening....when I'm feeling the need for a treat. It's flavor has a nice almond taste without being too powerful.
- Kerry Cottone, MI
 
Tasty Sweet Cup 8/5/2019
The Almond Sugar Cookie Black Tea steeps up a tasty sweet cup for a cold day. The flavor is reminiscent to me of the breakfast cereal that has sweetened flakes, granola clusters, and sliced almonds.

One of my faves! 7/12/2019
I really love this tea. I have had other almond flavored teas from other companies, but this is by far the best. It's a perfect combo of flavors
- jessica, NJ
 
New Favorite tea! 6/13/2019
I love this tea so much! It has a very nice balance of the actual flavor of the black tea and the sweet almond flavor. It is not too 'almond-y', but has just the right amount of flavor. It also has a really nice sweetness to it, really emphasizing the 'sugar cookie' part of the name. This is my new favorite tea!
- Kayla Ripley, WA
 
Great parts of the day 5/24/2019
Draw a little water, Wait for the smell of the dry tea, Then the Magic of hot water......
- Sean, NY
 
Delicious for any time of day! 5/1/2019
Sweet, almondy, nutty, and just a little spicy--I drink this in the mornings and it's perfect with breakfast!
- Jody H, PA
 
Almond Cookie Dessert Tea 2/5/2019
This tea is my personal favorite. I drink this tea everyday and even take it with me on vacation. I love the flavor. My husband who is a coffee drinker now drinks almond cookie tea in the morning with me instead of coffee!
- Bridget Barlow, MD
 
MOM... 1/11/2019
When I drink this delectable tea I can't help but sit and think about my mother. You're probably wondering why. The reason is because she LOVE, LOVE, LOVED almond sugar cookies. She didn't have them very often but when she did she would savor them. The flavor of this tea is so authentic that I just sip and think of all the beautiful memories I have of her.

Nice Almond Undertone 12/28/2018
I just tried this for the first time, and while it is lovely hot, I am looking forward to trying this as an iced tea. It would make an excellent flavored coffee replacement!
- Angela, NY
 
Wonderful almond flavor... 8/3/2018
This is definitely one of my favorite teas! I've tried other almond teas, but this one surpasses them all. Although it is listed as a dessert tea, I enjoy it with breakfast, or just by itself in the afternoon. Great year-round, but very comforting and cozy on a crisp autumn or winter day.
- W TAYLOR JOHNSON, MD
 
Nutty and Delicious 7/24/2018
Normally, I do not like flavored teas, but this one is so delicious and natural tasting that I find it quite addicting and enjoyable. I make a pot and drink it with added milk, which brings out the nuttiness of the almonds. No sugar is needed for me since it tastes naturally sweet already. It is a fine tea to share with your family especially on a cold wintry day, but is great any time, of course.

Almond sugar cookie 7/10/2018
I ordered a bunch of desert teas and this one was the first I tried. It smells just like a sweet almond cookie. I added a bit of sugar which brought out the sweet flavor more. This is a great sweet tea that is perfect in the afternoon for a pick me up.
 
Not the Same 4/28/2018
This tea was my all time favorite tea. Loved the smell and taste of it. Once my original can was gone I reordered a refill bag. The taste and smell was definitely not the same. I contacted S&V and they sent me another bag. It also was not the same taste and smell of my original can. Don't really know what the issue is? Maybe a new supplier?Definitly not the same.Very disappointed.
- Jan Chandonnet, MI
 
New Favorite! 12/27/2017
This is now my all-time favorite tea! So rich and flavorful! The other reviewers are correct... it really is like drinking a cookie! Be careful! This tea is addictive! Can't just have one cup!
- Brittany L., MS
 
Extraordinary almond tea 12/13/2017
If I could give this 6 stars I would. I can see why this tea is so popular and has so many reviews. It's so delicious! The dry leaf's aroma actually reminds me a bit of hazelnut coffee. When brewed it smells just like sugar cookies baking in the oven and tastes like it as well. What's even more interesting is when it cools it almost takes on a sort of raisin note giving me the feeling of eating an oatmeal raisin cookie. It's two cookies in one for me! If I were to recommend a first time S&V tea blend, it would be this hands down.
- SARAH DRAY, OH
 
Amazing flavor and aroma, genuinely like almond cookies 9/19/2017
This is one of my favorites among the S&V teas I've tried. The toasted almond flavor is nutty and rich, more like warm, roasted almonds than the amaretto flavor you might expect. The loose leaves smell JUST like almond cookies (it makes me think of those Chinese sugar cookies that I adore), and both scent and flavor carry over into the prepared tea, especially if you add a bit of sugar to your cup. This tea satisfies your sweet tooth without the calories or the work of baking. It's perfect on a chilly day!
- Catherine Walsh, IN
 
Creative Cup 8/23/2017
Nicely flavored tea. It lives up to its name for sure! I was hoping the tea flavor would stand out a touch more but overall a delicious cup. Love the creativity of the flavorings and blends!
- Stacy, PA
 
Delicious and flavorful 3/11/2017
This tea is almost as good as a cookie. It has the buttery, nutty and sweet fragrance of sugar cookies and tastes amazingly like the aroma. We sometimes add just a pinch of sugar.
MARY SECAUR
 
Amazing 3/1/2017
This is probably my favorite tea Ive tried from SV. It is warm, nutty, rich, and smooth, with just enough flavor to feel like a treat but not so much that you forget its tea. Its so simple that its good for any time of day, I love it mid afternoon to prevent the afternoon slump and get me through the rest of the day. Highly recommend.
- Jaclyn Orlowski, CT
 
Dessert in a cup 2/23/2017
Have been on weight watchers and needed something to satisfy a sweet tooth. This did the trick.... LOVELY

Another winner from the impressive S&V tea! 1/13/2017
A delectable tea this one is. It might SEEM similar to some of the other almond teas out there, but this one is different. The almond is much more toastier than other almond teas Ive tried. More toasted almond than a sweet marzipan flavor. Butter notes of the sugar cookie in the background. Its a lovely flavor, especially on a cold winter day. I love the slivered almonds and the orange flowers in the blend. The black tea has a nice thirst quenching quality rather than a dark,rich flavor, which might sound weird with a toasted almond flavor, but it completely works here. The second steep is just as flavorful. Its very hard not to love all of these S&V teas. Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoon for a full mug// 12 minutes after boiling // 3 minute steep Steep #2 // just boiled // 4 minute steep

Amazing! 11/14/2016
Truly a delicious cup of tea. Been enjoying it for breakfast because it just pairs so nicely with typical breakfast fare. Very smooth, no bitterness, flavored perfectly! Have not added milk or sugar and for my tastes it doesnt need it. I will be ordering this one again!

My favorite tea from Simpson and Vail! 9/1/2016
This is a fantastic tea and by far their best blend in my opinion. Dessert in a cup, with or without sugar, but I definitely recommend having a splash of milk with it to get that decadent creamy/buttery note from the cookie part of its name. I order it whenever I know Im starting to run low, no matter the season. Even the hubby, who dislikes hot beverages (gasp! I know) enjoys this cuppa on cool evenings. I hope they never stop making this tea!
- ERIN KRUEGER, NM
 
A Low Calorie Slice of Childhood 7/9/2016
Heaven! I have a very restrictive diet, so cant eat a lot of things I used to. But this... with a touch of vanilla almond milk... its exactly like biting into one of those sugar cookies they had at parties as a kid. The kind with the frosting and sprinkles... you know the kind with the frosting that turned your mouth blue? I have no idea how S&V captured that so accurately into this tea! Im reordering a tin of this!

Could use more almond flavor. 6/25/2016
It has the same toasty, bakey flavor as the Apple Cinnamon Coffeecake does, just without the apple and cinnamon flavors. Dont get me wrong, its a nice tea and its definitely cookie-like, but I was hoping for just a little bit more almond. What there is is so mild its overtaken by the bakey flavor I mentioned before.
LAUREN SALAS
 
not a favorite but good 5/30/2016
Not a favorite tea. This tea is alright but not a favorite and I thought it would have a stronger almond flavor. I not against it and would never refuse it but wouldnt choice it to buy again.
- DEBRA CRAWFORD, INT
 
Like drinking cookies :) Yum! 5/27/2016
This tea is soooo much like drinking cookies in the best possible way. Addicted! Ordering more!
 
Yum! 3/27/2016
An absolutely lovely blend of flavors...its like drinking the most perfectly baked cookie. I think if I could only drink one tea for the rest of my life, this one might be it. It held up well to a second steep which brought out more of the nutty flavor but still balanced.

Diabetic delight! No Sugar!!!!! 2/12/2016
Girlfriends enjoy tea time but when asked to enjoy a cup of Almond Sugar Cookie my friend who has diabetes decline, so glad I wrote and asked if this tea had sugar or not. Now to find if you can do it in caffeine free for the other friend! Always a challenge. Enjoyed the Tea Pod Cast so informative and I feel like weve met. Shop looks lovely. Road trip anyone?
Sandra
 
Perfect treat-like drinking a liquid sugar cookie! 1/1/2016
I had this tea for breakfast with a tiny bit of unsweetened almond milk. It was delicious! As it cooled, the cookie taste became even more pronounced. It tasted just like a premium sugar cookie from a bakery, you know the kind that have the delicious subtle almond aftertaste. I really dont know how S&V does it! I bet this would make a delicious iced latte. I could see this really helping to handle cravings which is perfect as I try to recover from several weeks of holiday indulgences!
- AJ, OH
 
Amazing Dessert Tea 10/11/2015
This tea is indulging like a delicious sugar cookie. There is quite a bit of almond in a sip that finishes out wonderfully with a bit of vanilla. Highly recommend this tea, even for the tea skeptics in your life. Make this tea as a tea latte and you will not be disappointed.

Almond Lovers delight! 4/25/2015
This tea is so good that, if you live in the south, you might slap your Mama! I bought it at a tea room that is now closed. I liked it so much that I tracked down the owner to find out how to get more!

LOVE 4/13/2015
I absolutely love this tea. It has helped me lose a lot of weight. I reach for it whenever I get a craving for something sweet. It smells heavenly and has saffron threads in it!!!! I wish I could find a perfume that smells like this tea. I drink it hot and cold. It gets rid of my cravings better if I drink it iced. Its not like any other tea I have. I love this one and August Peach.
- Soureh Sedigh, IN
 
Great year around! 3/25/2015
I drink this tea everyday while enjoying breakfast. It has so much flavor I dont need to add sugar or milk/cream. So yummy and filling. Of course it pairs perfectly with scones and other tea foods.
- TANYA FLORES, CA
 
Absolutely Divine. .. 3/22/2015
Simpson & Vail have so many wonderful teas but this is tied with Crème Brulee as my all-time favorite. When you open the package you experience your first delight because this smells wonderful and looks so inviting with abundant almond slices. Then you brew up a cup and add some light cream and you have a smooth, wonderful tasting tea. This is a wonderful mix of flavors with none being overpowering--it definitely tastes like an almond cookie. A very yummy way to end your day!!!

Delicious dessert in a cup! 2/7/2015
My search for this tea lead me to Simpson & Vail. What a find. I love almond and I love this tea.
- Anna C., WI
 
Deserves Every One Of Its Five Stars 6/18/2014
Wow. When you take a sniff from the bag, you know youre in for a treat. When you take a sip from the cup, you know youre enjoying a wonderful desert tea. No sweetener necessary, tastes light with no bitterness at all. And the aftertastes! The almond is front and center right where it should be, but somehow there is an additional something that makes you think you really just swallowed a bite of a traditional sugar cookie. This is a remarkable tea. Bravo, S&V, very well done.

My absolute favorite! 7/10/2013
This is by far my favorite of the S&V teas, or of any that I have yet to try anywhere!! I had some friends over for tea not long ago, and they have since become fans of Almond Sugar Cookie Dessert Tea and of S&V as well. It makes my afternoon tea an event to look forward to!
- Maria Cordero, UT
 
Great tea! 6/17/2013
This tea is one of my new favorites! It really is like having dessert without the calories. Great tea to enjoy after dinner on a cool evening.

The Best!! 3/1/2013
This is my fav tea. It feels like you are eating a cookie. I love going to the store on the weekend and visiting with the staff. Such an amazing group of people and a relaxing experience Love it!
 
Unreal! 9/20/2012
So divine. It smells like baking cookies in the oven. It tastes like a warm,fresh cookie! I kept checking the ingredient list because I was sure it must contain ground up cookies!
- Ellie Turner, ID
 
Delicious! 6/24/2012
I have a wheat sensitivity so cookies are off-limits for me. But I get a sweet cookie fix with this tea! Its great! I take mine with a healthy dose of half-n-half and it is dessert in a cup! Yum!
Amanda B
 
Back for more! 8/31/2011
This tea has a wonderful aroma and taste, who needs fattening foods when you can have this tea instead, it is like having dessert without the guilt.
- Dee, NE
 
S&V Delivers Again 7/22/2011
This is one of the most creative teas Ive tasted. You told me, Youve gotta try this! I did and asked my wife, How do they do that? Cream and sugar preferred with this one, but its creamy without. Almond Sugar Cookie black tea is destined for greatness.
