I added white sugar, a lot and it became a weird sweetened grassy fruity drink/
I have come to the conclusion I don’t like grassy green teas, and most green teas taste grassy to me.
I tried an assortment of amounts from 1/8 tsp – 1tbl in varying amounts of water and juices.
This was smooth, not bitter, hints of cranberry that I wish were stronger.
