I’m very glad I haven’t gotten sick of flavored teas yet. I don’t think I ever will. Flavored teas just mean a billion more options. I can’t imagine halving my options and only drinking straight teas. This is a fun blend I nabbed primarily because it was on sale. I don’t hate it – definitely don’t hate the flamingo sprinkles. The flavor is sweet and even though the cup is definitely flamingo pink, I’m not tasting an overabundance of hibiscus. To be honest, it does taste a little bit like Flintstones vitamins, but only slightly, and if I can get past that, the flavor is fruity enough. I paired this one with Teavivre’s lychee black and it was a great pairing. I’m usually sipping two different teas side-by-side with caffeine throughout the day, then the re-steeps in the afternoon and one no-caff herbal at night, so it’s really lovely when my two daytime choices actually complement each other!
Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoons for full mug // 40 minutes after boiling // 2 minute steep
Steep #2 // 20 minutes after boiling // 3 minute steep
