I’m actually very surprised that I didn’t brew this as a joke for someone…
This did not taste like broccoli, carrot if anything… then again, broccoli is my favorite vegetable so I am picky with it.
This wasn’t bad though, but it also wasn’t as satisfying as a soup broth. The flavoring is off, but it is drinkable to the point that I drank 10 ounces; then I got hungry though.

I use tea to cook with some regularity, some teas are explicitly for cooking because they are too strongly smokey, too herby in a culinary way, and/or just trigger a desire for real food. Recently I used a super smoked oolong I can’t stand drinking straight to make “stock” for use in a one pot creamy roasted red pepper and tomato pasta dish. Phenomenal. I could see using a tea like this in that fashion.
Trader Joes nasty coconut lemongrass tea is perfect for soup! I know what you mean :)
