Mastress Alita’s sipdown challenge – March Tea #2:  A tea flavored like your favorite pancake/waffle topping

I love berries on pancakes and raspberries are my favorite berry.  A sad sipdown – I highly doubt the flavor would be identical in any new batches of this… teas just can’t do ‘cream’ flavor like they used to when this tea was fresh.. I think because of the trend of more “natural” flavors… eh, I just want flavor to taste okay.  But this is all my guesswork!  I don’t actually know what a new batch tastes like.   I enjoyed this one though!  Raspberry!  Cream!  I’ll miss it but it was time for this to GO. According to Steepster, there aren’t many Raspberry Cream teas. I think I would have to rely on 52Teas for one…

Raspberry cream sounds divine!

Raspberries are top tier berries for me. I wish there were more raspberry cream teas!

AJRimmer

I feel the same about flavors!

Ah, I just commented on a post about a 52teas Raspberry and Lemon Cheesecake tea – definitely could stand to see more of these flavours!

I just saw a limited edition raspberry and chocolate in a Lupicia email this morning. Might try it!

Most of the teas listed in my cupboard are actually sample sizes. I don’t really have 2,000 ounces of tea around here! Many of my teas have only one teaspoon left… maybe two. But I like keeping them in my cupboard list for reference to what I could be sipping. Usually, I write tasting notes once for each tea. I’m still drinking them, just not writing tasting notes each time!

I’m always in search of: Hattialli, Qu Hao black, Jin Jun Mei, teas using marshmallow root.

My dislikes: hibiscus, ginger (unless in chai), turmeric, bee pollen, charcoal type flavors

My ratings:
95-100 – Super awesome deliciousness favorites – cupboard essential
80-95 – Also pretty delicious
65-80 – Pretty good
50-65 – Okay
1-50 – Probably won’t want to sip it again

I’m planning on being a Steepsterer as long as there IS a Steepster, so if you’re not hearing from me, that means something happened to my health… if you know what I mean. (Or as evidenced by the great computer hiatus of 2019, something happened to my computer… I have a dumb phone so can’t access internet on that. As of 12/20/21 my wifi might start getting unreliable.)

Happy sipping!
