Made this one as a cold brew mixed equally with Teavana’s Strawberry Lemonade. Brewed for about 13 hours. This one tastes very similar to when it is brewed hot.
I find the rooibos tropica really dulls the candy taste of the strawberry lemonade. The brew is still sweet, but quite blunted and no longer candy sweet. There is a taste of strawberry and a light lemonade taste, but it is not sour or bitter. When I added white sugar it really changed the flavour profile. I thought it would make it sweeter, but really what it did was brought out the green rooibos flavour. There is still a fruity flavour to the tea but there is also a sweet grass type flavour as well. I think I liked it better without the extra sugar added. I find it strange that when you mix these two together it gets less sweet. It is just one of those tea mysteries. I think I prefer both of these separately than when together.
