drank Cherry Lime Cola by 52teas
2302 tasting notes

I don’t enjoy lime flavoring generally, and I often don’t prefer green tea blends. But this one showed up in a mystery bag that I ordered, so hey I tried it. Yeah, I’m not loving it. It has the lime I don’t like and the green tea that gets too bitter and intrusive for me. I do like the soda flavor, but sadly there’s only a hint of that in the background. I tried a cold brew as well, but that seemed to only amp up the unpleasant lime. I accidentally left it out overnight, and when I tried it again in the morning, the soda flavor was suddenly coming through quite clearly. So I guess cold brew plus letting it sit is the way to go? Though I still do taste the negative/bitter flavors, they’re not so strong now. Also I have never noticed a single hint of cherry.

Bio

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
