Twinings Orange and Cinnamon (International Blend), 25 Tea Bags 50g
This is the Christmas-window cup of the citrus blacks we carry. Where the Lipton Spanish Orange is a clean, plain orange black, Twinings layers bold Vietnamese cinnamon over the fruit, and that cinnamon is the lead: warm, woody, properly spicy, with the bright orange zest cutting through it as a lift rather than the main event. It rests on a strong black base, brisk enough to stay a proper tea and not a mulled drink novelty, and it finishes clean with no artificial spice aftertaste. It comes into its own in cold weather, and it is one of the few flavoured blacks that really improves with a splash of milk, turning into a comforting cinnamon tea latte. Brewed long and chilled it also makes a good base for a winter punch. It is a seasonal-feeling cup more than an all-year daily; if you want spice without citrus, a chai is the better call. Ignore the marketing talk; this is festive comfort drinking, and a well made example.
Twinings Orange and Cinnamon (International Blend), in brief.
Twinings Orange and Cinnamon is a simple way to enjoy a warm and festive drink that many describe as Christmas in a cup any time of year. The 50g pack holds 25 individually wrapped envelopes: a strong black tea base with a generous 20 percent of real cinnamon bark and pieces of zesty orange. If you want to buy Twinings orange and cinnamon tea online in the UK for a comforting spiced brew that provides a bit of luxury in your 2026 routine, this international blend is a reliable choice for your daily tea break. It offers a much deeper spice profile than standard supermarket alternatives.
Made with high quality black tea and fragrant spice, it balances woody warmth against bright citrus very well. It is the best choice for making spiced tea lattes or a refreshing mulled iced tea, and the individually sealed envelopes ensure the aromatic oils stay fresh for a potent brew every time you open the box. This specific blend is highly prized across Europe and is now available as a premium selection for those who appreciate authentic ingredients.
