I kind of sucked this one down a bit quickly. I didn’t realize how thirsty I was!
I couldn’t decide if I wanted it hot or cold, so I went with cold. I was afraid my water temperature was a bit too high, and it somewhat tastes that way, the green tea is just a touch on the brisk side, but doesn’t taste too bad.
This isn’t bad, I thought a strawberry rhubarb tea would be awesome but I don’t think I think too highly of rhubarb. I will not give up on you though, rhubarb, you have too awesome a name.
It has a bit of a strawberry rhubarb pie taste to it. It’s sweet like you’d expect from macerated strawberries. I think I may like it better hot, so that was a failure on my part to try it cold first, but I also wanted to be able to drink it immediately.

This is one of those teas that really benefits from a lower steeping temperature.
This is in my shopping cart with The Tea Spot! :)
I did a tea cupboard inventory a few nights ago, emptying all 3 shelves, & documenting everything in my tea journal by tea-type. This is an unusually left brain activity for me, but needed to be done. In the process I came across a tin of this tea that I had forgotten about. I don’t recall being that thrilled with it before (which explains why it was in the back), but I’ll have to give it another try, at a lower brew temp!
