Loyd Boost Immunity, 20 Tea Bags 40g
Set aside the promise in the name, which no tea can keep, and take the cup as it is: a warming ginger lead, softened by blackcurrant and lifted by elderflower, on a sweetening liquorice root base that not everyone will like. Blackcurrant with ginger is a really good pairing on a cold afternoon, fruity and warming together. Caffeine-free. Buy it for that warming fruit-spice character, not for anything the box promises about your health.
Loyd Boost Immunity, in brief.
Loyd Boost Immunity is the citrus and ginger herbal in Loyd's Polish pyramid range, made with lemon, ginger and rosehip plus added vitamin C and a little natural fruit flavouring; we chose it as a central European rival to the citrus ginger blends of Twinings, Pukka and Yogi.
The lemon and ginger lead the cup, the lemon giving the sharper top citrus note and the ginger sitting underneath as the warming root layer, while the rosehip adds the structural fruit body that lets the cup pull a clear amber colour and the added vitamin C is folded into the recipe rather than dosed separately. Loyd's pyramids give the leaf and roots more room to open up than square bags at the same price, and the cup comes out sharper and louder than comparable British herbal blends.
Twenty pyramids to a box at a fair price for the format: a handy winter warmer that costs clearly less per cup than Twinings' pyramid equivalent, and the pyramid is worth the small step up.
Loyd Boost Immunity has a big, upfront flavour, and where mass market infusions lean on filler ingredients, this blend lets the character of its main botanicals come through clearly.
It suits anyone who likes a herbal cup with real flavour as a regular part of the day. Warmer and fuller than most herbal blends on the shelf, this Loyd immunity infusion is a natural fit for the colder months, or for a warming break in the middle of the afternoon.
Curator notes: we put together these tasting notes against the current Loyd box and its spec sheet, and brewed the pyramids at the suggested time and temperature to check them. For storage, shelf life and brewing temperatures, the Q and A tab lower down this page has the details.
