LCurator note · Teapigs
A clever two-stage cup: a sharp, properly warming ginger heat lands first, then liquorice rolls in behind it with a deep natural sweetness that lingers, so it self-sweetens without a grain of sugar. The temples hold whole botanicals, which gives the cup a surprisingly weighty, satisfying body for a caffeine free infusion, far beyond the thin, flat brew many herbal ginger bags settle for. The dividing line is the liquorice: if you love it, this is one of the most moreish ginger teas going; if you do not, the heat-then-sweet trick will not win you over, and the Dragonfly Lemon and Ginger (sharper, citrus-led, no liquorice) is the better pick. It also differs from our Dilmah Ginger and Honey, which is a caffeinated black tea rather than a herbal, so choose this for an evening cup. Ignore the grand claims; it is simply a warming, naturally sweet and comforting brew, and a swirl of honey pushes the sweet stage further if you like.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Teapigs Sweet Ginger is our pick for anyone who wants more from a ginger infusion than the standard supermarket box can give. Where basic herbal bags can taste thin and flat, this one comes in two stages: the ginger heat first, then the sweetness. These Teapigs temples share the easygoing, comforting side of a classic tetley digestive biscuit tea yet bring it in a bolder, whole botanical form for a mug at home or a proper afternoon break. For a sweeter, rounder mug, this ginger and liquorice tea takes a swirl of honey happily, and it also makes a smooth, refreshing cold brew spritz. Sip it on a slow evening at home or in the middle of a hectic working day; either way it keeps up the Teapigs standard of quality in 2026.

Side by side

How does it compare

vs Clipper Ginger & TurmericTeapigs offers a much sweeter finish thanks to the liquorice root, whereas Clipper is more earthy and spicy.
vs Twinings Lemon & GingerSweet Ginger has a heavier mouthfeel and proper whole root pieces, where the supermarket bags taste lighter and more "tea like".
vs Pukka Three GingerWhile Pukka is a spice powerhouse, Teapigs Sweet Ginger prioritises that unique "sweet lingering" finish that requires no honey.
Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperature100°C. The ginger pieces only let go of their warmth properly at a full rolling boil.
MeasureOne temple for each 200ml of water fresh off the boil; make it 2 temples if you like more punch.
Steep4 to 5 minutes; lean towards 5 for more shogaols and a deeper, lingering warmth.
ServiceA teaspoon of clear honey and a thin round of fresh lemon in each mug. Ginger, lemon and honey is an old British winter pairing, and the liquorice here sits happily alongside it.
Cold buster versionShake a small pinch of cayenne into the cup; capsaicin from the pepper piles a second wave of heat onto the ginger.
Caffeine noteNaturally caffeine free.
Best withLemon biscuits, spiced fruit cake, daringly sushi, and above all gingerbread.
