2171 Tasting Notes
This one was so good last time. This time, not so much. It’s not that it tastes bad necessarily. I don’t know, it just tastes sort of off. I’ll probably dump this one and make something else later. Or sip on it until it’s too late for more tea. That’s probably what it’ll be.
Preparation
Mastress Alita’s Monthly Sipdown Challenge
September 2022 → A yerba mate
This is a whole mix of ingredients, including the mate I needed to complete this sipdown prompt. And it is, in fact, a sipdown! We’ll probably get more of this one at some point, it’s one we both really enjoy.
Flavors: Orange
Preparation
Not too much licorice?
I didn’t taste any licorice at all! I tossed the bag already, but I don’t see licorice on the list of ingredients on the Yogi website. It looks like it does have monk fruit and stevia, but I didn’t taste any of that artificial sweetener flavor. I’m usually pretty sensitive to that.
For a Yogi tea, that’s just flat amazing!
Working on some sipdowns this week!
This is one I can’t say I’ll miss. It’s not very flavorful. It’s very lightly spiced. I can taste clove most, but even that is faint. I did add milk, so it’s a cozy drink, but it tastes more like a warm spiced milk than any sort of tea blend. Glad to have one more single serving out of the cabinet!
Flavors: Clove, Spices
Preparation
This tastes like chocolate! It must be the base tea – I don’t think I remember seeing chocolate in the ingredient list. A very satisfying cup, even if I’m not tasting much in the way of berries.
Flavors: Dark Chocolate
Preparation
I loved this the first time around, but this cup tastes like chamomile. How strange. The spices are barely there too. I must not have gotten a good mix of everything in this scoop. It’s the last of the bag. I’d thought about ordering more when it becomes available. I might still do that, but hopefully a full bag will have more flavor.
Flavors: Chamomile
