218 Tasting Notes
You know those days where you just NEED chocolate? Like, the world will end if you don’t get it? But then you feel guilty about breaking whatever diet promise you made to yourself that morning? Well this tea will fix that problem. So so so chocolately! Just amazing.
Preparation
I’ve only had one cup of this but by golly its tasty! Its very berry-ee! Really tasty, so good iced! Looking forward to trying it hot too.
Preparation
This one is really tasty. Hot, its very raspberry-ish, with the rooibos base giving it a nice flavour. Iced, it is sweet, creamy (hello, vanilla) and juicy. Goes a reddy-orange colour, smells sweet too! One of my favourite summer teas to ice.
Preparation
My go-to cold and flu blend. Goes great with Tasmanian leatherwood honey when the winter ickiness gets you down (like me today, and yesterday :( )I like that the flavours are well balanced but still tastes useful, like its helping. Nice on a sore throat.
I like this better than DavidsTea’s Cold 911, that is a bit strong for my liking, and I feel like I need to like the taste of something when I’m sick!
Has a permanent place on my tea shelf during winter (I imagine it would ice well too if you get a summer cold or summer allergies).
Preparation
Dear god this sh#t’s powerful. Even with my heavily blocked, cold and flu tablet influence nose the mint and eucalyptus smack s you in the face. Dosed this with a dollop of honey, as even with all the sinus blockages, it’s still really strong.
Is going down ok, but I can’t have too many mouthfuls at a time as the eucalyptus is quite strong (not sure if that’s factually correct or just my cold).
will rate when I see how much it helps.
1. Open bag of bamboozled for the first time. HOLEY TEA GODDESS THIS SMELLS LIKE A HOLIDAY! So much peachy pineappley goodness in a bag! And it’s relatively light, there’s lots in that 50g bag of mine!
2. Make tea. Icing this for a cold drink with dinner. Used 3 perfect teaspoons in the first steep for 2 glasses, added another for the second infusion. The smell is still Intoxicating! It looks so bizarre steeping – the rose petals and the fruit expand out like oolong and take up the whole steeper. It looks like an overcrowded aquarium, with seaweed and fish going everywhere.
3. Steep into glasses. Hmm, there appears to be some kind of tea dust or floaties, as by the time the second glass drains its going much slower, and even slower in the second infusion. Will consider using a tea filter or a cocktail shaker next time.
4. Sipping time- ooh, tasts like tropical fruit, and is so refreshing cold! Second steep I added some agave and it was even fruitier! Wow! Love this one!
