31 new teas and 15 upgraded teas is almost overwhelming. So here’s a quick guide to the new Teavana teas you shouldn’t miss.

All of the new teas offer flavors, smells and health benefits that are exceptional. But a few of the teas are far above the ordinary and need a little extra attention. In this short post I’m highlighting those teas, but I really recommend you checkout all of the new Teavana teas so you don’t miss anything.

I think it’s easiest to find the category that you enjoy the most and see which teas I recommend:

Straight (non-flavored) Teas
	Eastern Beauty Oolong This Formosa Oolong was made famous by Queen Elizabeth, who is no novice at great tea. It has a sweet, even-bodied cup you will love.
	SILVER YIN ZHEN PEARLS This pure, hand-rolled white tea has a wonderful flavor and all the health benefits of white tea.
	THREE KINGDOMS MAO FENG This organic green tea from the Fujian Province is pure, tender and delicious. An excellent straight green tea.
Spicy and Chai Teas
	SKINNY CHAI PU-ERH Combines Pu-erh, Oolong and Rooibos teas in a nice harmony of bright chai spices and just a touch of berry taste for a wonderful tea.
	MY MORNING MATE A spicy, chocolate blend that will make you forget all about that other morning drink! And it has the caffeine kick you need.
Fruity Teas
	PEACHBERRY JASMINE SUTRA Combining delicious peach and berry tastes with a touch of Jasmine, this tea is a healthy treat anytime of the day.
	RASPBERRY RIOT LEMON MATE The explosion of flavor from this invigorating Mate tea will keep you coming back for more!
	YOUTHBERRY Tropical and delicious, this white tea is packed with Acai berry benefits on top of the white tea healthiness.
Dessert Teas
	TIRAMISU TREVISO Italy’s most popular dessert has been captured in this wonderful Rooibos tea. Not one to miss!
	TOASTED NUT BRULEE Rich, delicious blend offers you a sweet treat without remorse! It is hazelnut and almond cream brulee in a cup!
Super Healthy Teas
	SUPERFRUIT UNITY Start with green tea and add delicious superfruits that offer a healthy boost to your body!
	BODY + MIND Combines white tea, green tea and Oolong in a unity that’s hard to believe. And you get the health benefits of all three.
Diet Teas
	WEIGHT TO GO! This tea combines pu-erh and Oolong, two famous weight loss teas, with a flavorful collection of fruits that may help shed pounds.
	SKINNY CHAI PU-ERH Also combining Pu-erh and Oolong, this delicious chai includes Rooibos for a wonderful treat that keeps your diet on track!
Great Iced Teas
	STRAWBERRY LEMONADE Delicious over iced, Strawberry Lemonade Herbal tea is healthy and exactly what you expect!
	RASPBERRY SOIREE Combins green tea with tart and tangy fruits for an excellent iced tea. We recommend including a touch of our natural Rock Sugar.
	EVERSUMMER PUNCH A delightfully tropical herbal tea that makes a wonderful iced drink. And it has the vitamins and minerals you expect from herbal teas.

It was tough to select some over others, but in the end I think this is a great lineup of the new teas. Shop the full collection of new teas here.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Please mention your favorite below – it helps everyone to know which are the best of the new teas.

So, what to do about mate lemon blast? I want the caffeine sometimes with my fruity teas, especially roobios peach bloom. I am allergic to strawberries, raspberries, mango, and papaya, so that excludes many choices. Why are all of the new mate teas chocolate?!

Dear Teavana, It’s very good that you guys are bringing new flavors and I’m looking forward to try them, but PLEASE listen to your customers!!! There are companies that pay thousands of dollars on research just to find out what the customers want and wish and here we are begging you to listen to us. Many of your loyal customers are very very sad and disappointed with some of your choices of discontinued teas. So, why not keeping a small stock of those for on-line sales only?? and if you guys still think it’s alot of investment, you can make a bi-annual offer of those teas, so their fans can stock up and stop being so upset with Teavana. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE think about it.

Please bring back Rose Marzipan delight! All the others are reproducible and cheaper elsewhere but that was a gem.
