drank Red Velvet Cake by DAVIDsTEA

Shmiracles sent me a delightful collection of samples. This is the first one I have tried, mostly because I’ve been craving cake.

It’s not very sweet on it’s own, and the red velvety-ness of it is subtle. I added some milk and a little honey, and that added to the texture and enhanced the sweeter tones of the flavor. Definitely a nice treat when I can’t have a real cake.

I can smell the cinnamon, but I can’t taste it or much of anything besides black tea, although there is a hint of sweetness and vanilla at the end. I will try a longer steep time next.

Still unremarkable, even with the longer steep. Oh, well!

I’ve been enjoying several cups of this courtesy of my sis, and it may have won me over to rooibos teas. Or at least flavored rooibos teas.

Yay! I thought you would like it :)

Profile

Bio

I started as a coffee drinker who appreciated tea. I mainly drank a few flavored bagged teas (and of course, Southern sweet iced tea). I pull out the Throat Coat and Breathe Easy when I’m sick, but aside from that, teas had never been a daily part of my life. However, my sister has exposed me to a broader range of flavors, and to loose teas, which was good when coffee started bothering me and I needed a new source for warm cups of caffeine delivery systems. I mainly drink English breakfast teas these days, but occasionally explore some others. Earthy teas that are low in bitterness are my preference, and I tend to avoid fruity teas in general, with a few exceptions.
