Banana Bread

Pretty agreed with Cameron B. on this one. It’s not quite banana bread, simply because it’s lacking that buttery cake-y quality and the banana is too sweet/candy like and creamy. I mean, no one in their right mind describes banana bread first and foremost as a creamy dessert. However, it’s really delicious when you don’t think about the name!

Totally banana flavoured Laffy Taffy vibes and that’s something I’m really into. I do think it’s a shame that it’s not exactly its namesake, but IMO I think Almost would have needed to use an entirely different type of banana flavouring in order to get closer to what they were going for. I’ve liked all the banana teas so far though! Would love to see their interpretation of something like a Banana Split. It feels like that would be well in their wheelhouse.

Very good banana tea. Does not taste artificial at all. Nice creamy texture. Tastes like banana bread. Has a cakey taste. I have tried a lot of banana teas. This is one of my favorites. Glad they used a green rooibos base. I will have to try it as a latte too.

All right, this one I can get behind. It has a nice, slightly creamy banana flavor that sits somewhere between the real thing and Laffy Taffy. Does it taste like banana bread though? Ehh… There’s maybe a hint of a caramelized flavor to it, but nothing cakey or bready.

To me, it’s more like banana pudding? The green rooibos base gives it nice body without interfering with the lovely flavor. Overall, I approve.
