drank Ginger Lemon by Zen Tea Life
35 tasting notes

The way I see it, there are three reasons to drink this tea:

1) You’ve got a serious cold and you’ve reached that point where you’re drinking directly out of the Nyquil bottle at noon,

2) You’re about to have some kind of Gilmore-level authentic Chinese food extravaganza,

3) You are some kind of ginger fetishist.

All valid reasons in their own way, of course.

Basically, this is crazy ginger and the lemon, while there, just makes the ginger poppier. It’s not bad but you’ve really really really got to like ginger. I like ginger a liiiitttle bit so this was too much for me but I’m keeping it for reason (1) which I’m sure will come around at some point and then I’ll be glad I have it. It’s yellow so I recommend treating it like green and being careful with the temperature and steep time.

Flavors: Ginger, Lemon, Lemongrass

I am essentially a ginger fetishist, but I don’t really care for lemongrass so I probably still wouldn’t be a fan of this.

Bio

I live in NC with my Irish husband and our two furbabies, Olaf the Hedgehog and his little brother Hugo the Peekapoo. I’m a microbiologist but mostly I love to travel.

My mom is the tea guru ashmanra. I have an uneducated interest in tea. I began drinking green tea a few years ago to be healthy and have developed a taste for matcha, white, puerh, and some black. My go-to is Stash White Christmas which I drink in amounts that should probably be studied long-term. Stash should probably be sponsoring me. (except they just discontinued White Christmas and were rude when I contacted them about it…. Never mind about Stash, they are canceled)
