I feel bad because cavocorax sent this to me and i’m reviewing this before her and i literally have NOTHING to say about this because i had a no good very bad day and all i can recall was that it was like other TTC teas and i enjoyed it, though it didn’t knock my socks off. Which means it’s likely about an 83 ish but i’m not sure i could pick it out of a line up of TTC teas lol.

Sorry your day was so rough! And, I’m sure I’ll give it the review it deserves at some point!

i didn’t expect work to be so busy today. I’m really glad that i thought to add this to my travel mug today since it’s gotten me through a painful afternoon. I have zero clue how i’m going to manage to get on track and sleep. seems to be a choice between one or the other these days.

creamy? yes. rhubarb? negative. tasty? yeah apart from not actually tasting like rhubarb :) thanks for sending this one my way omgsrsly i’ll enjoy the rest of this but clearly not a reorder, though at least it doesn’t smell or taste like feet… ;)

Is there any good strawberry rhubarb tea? Doesn’t need to be creamy

OMGsrsly

This one wasn’t too impressive to me either. Boychik, I haven’t found a tea that I really felt was rhubarby enough.

TeaBrat

Lupicia makes a strawberry rhubarb black tea, I liked it

thank you omgsrsly for braving the PEAR to pick this upt for me (and i think dexter?) I am actually really enjoying this one, though i think i’ll let it steep a little longer next time as the rooibos is coming through but not enough of the pear is. This is pear juice. like the juice from fruit cups…except mixed with the rooibos it’s not nearly as sweet or intense…it’s tasty delicious. i just want.moar.pear. :)

OMGsrsly

Oh, I sent the rest to Anna. Sorry Dexter! If you want some I can grab a sample for you.

Sil

OMGsrsly

Ok! Phew. Yeah, I sent the rest of the package to Anna. :)

ok..so hot brewed, i MUCH prefer the taste of this one….HOWEVER…i can’t drink it…there is something seriously bothersome about the aroma of this tea that makes my mouth rebel with every thought of drinking it. I plugged my nose and did drink it to be able to try it hot brewed, but man i cannot get past that smell lol thanks for letting me try variaTEA!

nomity nom nom…. not much to say about this tea except that it got me through today…and today was a good day because…..

I. SAID. NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

except that i did it by saying yes… “Yes, i would be happy to be the business lead on that project as long as you’re comfortable with the fact that it will not be delivered. Yes, i am more than willing to look after that project if you don’t mind that it won’t happen until January….of 2016” so there. Good tea. Good day.

OMGsrsly

That’s the perfect way to do it. :)

yyz

Good for you!

TeaLady441

Hahah. Good job!

Hillel

Sounds like that was a wonderful, reality-based response to the situation. That’s far to rare, so good for you, Sil!

Sil

I’m finding that the “easiest” way to get a sipdown in at work this week is to use the samples of TTC teas that cavocorax gave me haha. Then i can get a second one in at night during the week when i have a herbal :) This one i’ve had before but it was still enjoyable. that being said, i see no need to go with the upgrade version, as i like the non upgraded version better :) thanks for letting me revisit this one Cavo!

TeaLady441

Oh shoot. I tried to send ones you hadn’t tried before!

Sil

haha i like revisiting old friends :)

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling as well!

Most of that is on hold these days though, including tea drinking like I used to as I have a new little one who eats up all my spare time.
