Had some to go from David’s today… great lemon flavour, the actual tea for me was nothing special. I got this hot but it would probably be better iced. If the base tea was better I’d get more of this but I’m quite happy I didn’t buy a bag.

SO TANGY AND TART. Love it. Even if it didn’t have AWESOME raspberry leaf I’d still love it for the lemon balm and the incredible raspberry taste. I’m on the fence about a lot of berry teas, but this one? Knockout. The apple + raspberry combination is stellar and complex.

I always steep it 10+ min to make the flavour as strong as possible because it’s so good. It’s such a bonus that something that’s good for the girly time of the month also tastes amazing. Yay!

Flavors: Raspberry, Tangy, Tart

drank Salted Caramel by DAVIDsTEA

So this to me tastes more like a salty broth than tea… sometimes I get more of the caramel flavour peeking through, but this morning it was like having broth with my breakfast. I still drank it but definitely was not what I was expecting, despite the “Salted” part of the name.

Flavors: Salt

I put off buying these for a long time because they were so overpriced. I finally caved and DAMN. They are so easy to use and completely awesome. Crap.

drank Movie Night by DAVIDsTEA

I thought for sure this blend had nuts in it so I stayed away, and I’m glad I finally took the time to read the ingredients! I had better luck steeping it longer than green tea usually steeps. There’s barely any tea flavour, it’s mostly from the apples, so it feels more like a fruit infusion to me. Definitely tastes like kettle corn or a caramel apple… I think this one’s a bit of an acquired taste but it has a comforting salty-sweet corn-like smell that’s quite interesting, in a good way. If you steep it until it’s a deep golden colour (over 5 mins), the taste is bold and the kettle corn flavour really comes through. If you steep for 4 minutes or less it’s not a very exciting tea.

drank Read My Lips by DAVIDsTEA

Oh boy, this tea is gooooood. It is the most chocolatey tea I have ever tasted – exactly like mint hot chocolate, the mouthfeel and everything!! I used to think PC’s Chocolatey Mint was my favourite chocolate tea… no way. This one, by a mile. As I’m trying to eat as little sugar as possible (only 6g today! yay!) these sugary sweet teas from David’s have been a lifesaver. I can get my sweet tooth on without the sugar or calories. So fantastic.

The resteep wasn’t great, though.

Tart and tangy! I didn’t get “soothing” from this tea, it reminded me of lemonade. This would probably be really good iced on a hot day on a patio somewhere. :)

drank Masala Chai by Tea India

My favourite chai. The blend is perfect! Everything just works together. It’s not very bold – there’s spice but nothing’s really dominating this blend. Very tasty and calming, though. After having a few bad chais (Tetley’s chocolate chai and David’s vanilla chai) I thought I was just not a chai person – that is untrue. I could drink this all day.
