With the heat lately, i’ve been trying to drink more iced teas. Unfortunately, most of the teas I have are not ideal to have cold. I picked up this tea, razzmatazz and mothers little helper today specifically to have iced. This tea has such a light and fruity scent which translates into the taste. The bamboo along with the fruit are really hydrating and refreshing which will be great for summer. The only complaint I have about this tea is the aftertaste; I plan on trying it warm as well to see if there is an aftertaste or if it is not as bad but iced, it definitely lingers in my mouth. That however, is certainly not enough to deter me from drinking it.

I forgot to mention that to me, it is very similar to mango madness so if that was something that you enjoyed you will probably enjoy this one too! :)

I had this one today too. I do like it a lot. I think I know what you mean about the aftertaste, but i cannot put my finger on what it is. I restock this one though, because it is refreshing. Try cold brewing to see if the aftertaste subsides some. I think it has for me. I do like this one a lot.

I had this one iced and will try it warm too. I’ve now had it iced twice and both times there is an aftertaste. The aftertaste almost coats your mouth and I agree, definitely can’t put my finger on the ingredient.

I had this one warm today for the first time and I found that there was definitely an improvement with the aftertaste. I really enjoyed it warm and found that it was still really hydrating!

Bio

I am a tea fanatic and have also recently made the transition from vegetarian to vegan! I always have tea in my hand and in my overflowing cupboard!

I prefer black, green and white teas. I have recently discovered mate and oolongs. So far I’ve enjoyed them however, I have not tried very many. I am not often a fan of rooibos as I tend to find them overly woody but have found there to be some exceptions. As for herbals, I am only recently beginning to drink these on a regular basis (mostly iced) as the weather gets warmer, but these I am willing to try. I have not yet developped the taste for pu’erh.

I tend to only rate and review the teas I drink once (maybe twice if my opinion REALLY changes; especially if I were to have them prepared a different way). I currently only use Steepster for logging my reviews of David’s Tea although I do drink teas from many different companies. Every time I visit the store, I try something new in a cup to-go as I enjoy going through the tea menu and marking off teas as I try them. My goal is to try them all!

My rating system is as follows:
90-100: Wecome to my permanent collection! (worthy of a 100g tin!)

75-90: Definetly would drink again but maybe not all the time. I would buy a small amount (50g or less) to have once in a while.

50-75: I will finish the cup but not my favourite.

25-50: I will try to finish the cup but may not be able to.

0-25: Not my cup of tea…down the sink we go!
