From 52teas

I don’t recall what inspired me to bring these two flavors together, but I’m really glad I did because this tastes amazing! The lemon is bright without the sour I normally associate with lemon because the coconut smooths out the sour note of the lemon. The coconut is sweet and creamy but balanced out with the tangy notes of the lemon. It reminds me a lot of lemon curd, but a sweeter lemon curd thanks to the coconut.

I started with a combination of organic green and red rooibos so that I could get the nutty notes from the red and the sweet, fruity notes from the green – and then added lots of lemon, lemon balm and coconut! It’s organic, vegan, naturally caffeine-free & gluten free!

Seriously, this is one that you’ll need to try! I think you’re going to love it! A perfect summertime treat!

organic ingredients: green rooibos, red rooibos, coconut, lemon, lemon balm & natural flavors

Happy National Coconut Torte Day! Finally getting around to drinking my coconut tea! This is the oldest coconut tea in my stash (from 2018) so crossing fingers and toes that it is still okay! (At least the package was still sealed…)

The dry leaf has a lovely lemon aroma, but since the citrus is so strong, I can’t really tell from the sniff-test the state of the coconut. Guess I’ll have to steep and see!

Brewed 5g to 450ml 205F water, teabag left in grandpa-style. Getting a satisfying lemon cream sort of aroma from the steeping tea. On a tentative first sip… well, the coconut doesn’t taste particularly fresh, I am getting a little of the acrid coconut taste, but it is fairly tolerable, since mostly I’m tasting lemon, and it’s a very nice lemon, bright and citrusy and not that artificial-furniture-polish flavor that lemon can so easily veer in tea. There is a light tanginess but mostly the tea is sweetened up by the coconut, which is a more subtle note to the lemon, but easily noticable. I really like the flavor combination of the lemon with the coconut as well. The base is a combination of green and red rooibos, and I think I’d like this a little more if it was entirely on a green rooibos base, but it is pleasant, very sweet, maybe a hint of nuttiness and herbaceous citrus.

I’m liking this! I’d probably like it even more if I could finally get to the point where I am drinking my teas while they are in their prime, but I’ll enjoy my few cups of this as I work on sipping it down before the coconut gets any older.

Cold Brew Sipdown (227)

I wanted so badly to like this one but it never quite worked for me. This cold brew is mostly rooibos and then a hint of lotion. Not for me.

Another tea from this afternoon. Tried to back off of the caffeine a bit while working on some of my older teas. Heh I’m sure some would laugh at my “old teas” since ignoring puerh, i think the oldest is August of 2018. Still enjoying this one – love the creamy, coconut lemon that isn’t “pinesol” that ann has blended here.

hahahahahahahahaha. Old tea. 2018. sure. At least you aren’t drinking unfresh teas! :D

hey that was my big accomplishment last year. It’s always my goal to have teas no older than 6 month (ignoring puerh) in my cupboard. It rarely happens, but keeps me from really hoarding anything. As it stands i have 8 teas from 2018. everything else is Jan 2019

That’s pretty darn good then!

I hot-brewed a pitcher of this and then stashed the pitcher in the fridge overnight. This makes a wonderful iced tea. The lemon is bright and the coconut brings a nice creaminess to it – it reminds me a lot of lemon curd. Sweet, creamy and yummy!
