Ugh, I think I found a new poison.
I took a sip and made such an interesting face (oh, woe, that we did not have a camera to record it) that my boyfriend immediately grabbed the cup away from me and tried it himself. He described it as “hawaiian punch, but much, much worse.”
I can’t be so generous. To me, it tastes like bubble gum that’s been chewed for a while. Only the barest residual of the flavor remains, replaced with a stale nasty taste that leaves your mouth feeling funny. Old, nasty bubble gum. That’s what ‘Green Tea With Mango’ tastes like to me.
Side note: Y’know, for a green tea the liquor is awfully red. It’s about the color of caramel. I’m guessing that’s the hibiscus at work.
eww, thanks for saving me from it, i buy anything with mango in it
Janefan, sorry to hear that you got a wierd aftertaste! Please do try this iced…it is one of my favorites!

I should point out that this bag was from a swap – it was of indeterminate age, so it may have just been old, stored in a warm place, etc.
I only had 1 bag, but I did chill the rest of my cup and found it drinkable cold. I’m also not a huge mango fan…
