May 2020 Reblend

This is such a freaking good iced tea. It tastes and smells exactly what you’d imagine and want the tea equivalent of strawberry lemonade to be like.

The blend brings back memories of being a kid obsessed with the smell of those sickeningly sweet and citrusy frozen Minute Maid Pink Lemonade cans (so poignant a smell, so strange a child) . Now I, as an adult, can smell and drink this refreshing tea with no weird looks and a far less chance of developing cavities. These are the real milestone moments.

Flavors: Citrus, Lemon, Lemongrass, Strawberry, Sugar

Bird and Blend used to do a great strawberry lemonade tea. I wish they’d bring it back for the summer.

I think I vaguely remember their strawberry lemonade tea but that was ages ago.. I keep meaning to reorder from them too, but I’m waiting for the peach thing to transition into limited edition stuff that will hopefully be better aligned with my tastes! XD

I want to see if I still like Vicky’s Sponge Cake. I pretty much lived off of that stuff in 2013-2014, along with now defunct Della Terra’s Lime Chiffon D:

Btw, Strawberry Lemonade is back on their website!

Bio

I started my Steepster loose leaf adventure back in 2012. I can’t say I’m completely new anymore, but I still view oolong as a magical, extraterrestrial creature that unfurls in water.

My favourites are teas like Milk Oolong, Silver Needle,and Japanese Sencha/Gyokuro, or fruity and floral flavoured ones. However, I generally enjoy ALL the teas, including a good old cup of Earl Grey or Breakfast blend.

Subjective Rating System:
I don’t give a lot of low ratings out, since a) I tend to grab tea I know will appeal to me, and b) I don’t have a lot of strong dislikes.

90-100: Favourites. The Desert Island Teas.
80-89: Loved teas. Possibly staple-worthy.
70-79: Good teas, but I’m less likely to repurchase. Minor quibbles.
60-69: Ok teas. Likely a few preference and/or quality issues.
50-59: Cup of meh. Will do in a pinch.
11-49: Varying levels of undrinkable tea.
1-10: Nightmare tea from the chaos realms. This tea is the embodiment of the primordial swamp, an unholy abomination. It’s very gross and I’m almost positive it doesn’t exist.
