I’ve been wanting to try this and thanks to LiberTEAS I am sipping on it now! I am going to give this one many more tries but for my first attempt – here are my thoughts, my findings!
The scent before infuses is like a watermelon flavored ribbon candy…not as sweet as a watermelon flavored jelly ranger, however. YES! I do think there is a difference between the two! LOL – I think the Ribbon Candy has more of a Licorice type hint to it…not actually saying I can smell licorice but it isn’t as sweet or puckery as a Jolly Rancher. You know what I mean!?
Now…back to the Licorice…when I TASTE the tea there is a hint of what tastes LIKE licorice. This isn’t a puckery watermelon more of a watermelon spice or watermelon licorice type taste. Maybe that’s where I am getting with the Watermelon Ribbon Candy VS The Watermelon Jolly Rancher. Ok…confused!? LOL – like I said…this week is kicking me in the ass so here’s hoping this all makes sense to someone! LOL
I did infuse more loose leaf than I probably should have – that is why I said I am going to try this several times.

I think I was hoping for more puckery watermelon and less licorice or spice or whatever…yeah…I was looking for puckery…like Watermelon Pucker (alcoholic beverage) or Watermelon Jolly Rancher-esque…ya know!?
I wasn’t disappointed but maybe left a little wanting based on my specific craving at the moment…if that makes sense.
I wish I got more watermelon out of this, but SO glad I got no licorice.
