Tea of the Week for June 13, 2016!

I was inspired to create this tea when I came across a recipe for a Rosemary Tangerine Cooler which is a rum-based cocktail. I love to cook with herbs and I’ve been wanting to experiment with adding more herbs to my tea blends so when I saw this recipe, it was a light bulb moment for me and I decided that I had to try the combination of rosemary and tangerine in a tea.

I didn’t want to focus so much on the rum aspect of the “cooler” – although there is a hint of rum flavor in this blend. I wanted the focus to be the tangerine and the rosemary. I’m really happy with the result – there’s a big, bright tangerine note and the rosemary adds a really nice, earthy flavor with just a hint of pine-like and mint-like notes.

I started with a base of Thyolo OP1 Green Tea from the Satemwa estate in Malawi – it’s a fair-traded, rainforest-alliance certified green tea – and then I added some organic Chinese Sencha. I added dried tangerine sections and organic, dried rosemary.

It’s different – not your usual cuppa – but I think you’ll enjoy it!

ingredients: fair trade green tea, organic green tea, dried tangerine sections, organic rosemary, organic natural flavors.

This is an interesting one. Citrus notes in the dry blend but full on rosemary in the steeped tea. I love rosemary so I enjoy that flavor, but something about this I don’t like. Maybe the green tea itself? Admittedly, I’m not a great fan of green teas generally. Perhaps that’s adding to my hesitation here.

Picked this one up purely for curiousity, as I haven’t had rosemary in a tea before. While it is interesting, it is reminding me too much of medicinal blends for my liking, and therefore I don’t think I’ll be trying rosemary teas in the future. I was also hoping for a bit more tangerine – which smelled great when I opened the package – but it was definitely relegated to the background a bit by the rosemary.

Probably not a tea for everyone, but is a fun experiment. If you are a fan of rosemary and/or minty teas, I think you may enjoy this.

This one was a bit of a disappointment for me. I got excited about the prospect of tangerine with the slightest hint of rosemary in the back somewhere. Alas, that was not to be quite like that.
