drank Melonade by DAVIDsTEA
308 tasting notes

Infernal carrot! I redeemed one of my Frequent Steeper rewards for this blend despite the appearance of carrots in the ingredients list. Cantaloupe is so tricky in a tea, and I adore melon teas. It’s been a few years since DT’s released a LE melon tea I enjoyed. I believe Sour Watermelon (summer 2017) was the last one I bought in bulk. I probably would’ve been tempted to purchase more had I not been able to taste the carrot.

I will also add that I don’t get any hint of lemonade in this blend. Perhaps the citrus note is masked by the astringency of the green tea base.

Shame.

Flavors: Cantaloupe, Carrot

What’s wrong with carrot? Lol

There’s nothing wrong with carrot. I just don’t care for it as an ingredient in tea.
