Hi Tonia,
Lotus Ecstasy is indeed quite bitter, this is due to the nature of Blue lotus itself, an extremely bitter herb. The tea blend you mention can be made more palatable by #1, increasing the ratio of water to herbs, #2, simmering or steeping instead of boiling, and #3, by the addition of stevia, fruit juice, honey, or sugar. I find the tea is not too bad when prepared right, but it may take a trial or two to hit the sweet spot.
