The verdict
Where this pick fits.
Dandelion root, burdock, juniper berry, sarsaparilla: the herbs the apothecary tradition reaches for first. Steep it full and drink it straight. The flavor is woody and slightly peppery, with none of the sweetness the other Yogi blends offer. One cup at a time, as often as wanted. The ritual is the point.
Woody, peppery, nothing sweet. Drink it for what it does. It earned its spot in our lineup by solving the stage it's supposed to solve, without pretending to solve every stage after it.
