A shop down the street was unloading its stock of Harney and Sons tea, so I bought up the rest, which was mostly their Dragon Pearl Jasmine. There were a couple tins of this, though, and the owner threw them in.
I wasn’t a fan when I first tried this. However, the smell is actually not medicinal and awful from the tin like it was out of the little plastic sampler pack, so I’m thinking maybe that was a bad combination rather than the tea itself (I have noticed that plastic-wrapped teas tend to smell/taste off to me). It’s actually become one of the few teas I open the tin just to take a whiff of now and then.
And I was right in my first assessment; this is absolutely DELICIOUS iced. It is so juicy that it is a good choice when you’re craving that 300-calorie bottle of Snapple. Still not a huge fan of it hot, though.
