Hmm, I get more lemon than lime here, but it might be that I overbrewed it. I thought I was safe because it was a coldbrew.
Lots of lemon (similar to lemon myrtle or lemon grass), some pineapple (dried or candied pineapple), some nice mallow flower. I was hoping for more lime, but it also could be that the pinch I took out of the bag had no lime ring in it. Anyway, this made a nice iced tea, but I’m doing a shorter steep next time.
Flavors: Citrus, Lemon, Marshmallow, Pineapple

There is absolutely no lemon in this or anything remotely lemon except that limes and lemons are both citrus. There’s just lime, lime leaves, green tea and marshmallow root. So, I don’t know where the lemon is coming from. Weird.
Maybe I misinterpreted the lime leaves as lemon. I definitely found it to be lemon rather than lime. I’ll have to try it again hot and see if that changes anything.
It could be? I don’t know. The lime leaves – at least to me – taste very distinctly lime when steeped – even more so than steeped fruit. But, if you taste lemon, I believe you – it wasn’t me questioning that – it was just me kind of wondering what would be tasting of lemon. I guess it goes back to everyone’s taste buds are different and react to things differently. Have you tried the “You Are My Sunshine” tea (tisane) yet?
