From DAVIDsTEA

Summer days call for an iceable fruit infusion that’ll leave you feeling energized, focused and oh-so fresh. And this tea definitely delivers. Bursting with juicy honeydew melon, pineapple and moringa – a miraculous plant full of vitamins, minerals and protein – this hydrating and nourishing blend is more refreshing that a dip in the sea.

(Note: Moringa not available as an ingredient, is the 5th ingredient in the list)

Price per 50g: $8.98

2021 Sipdown 69/365!
(DavidsTea 151)

Ran across a pile of “M” teas, all variants containing melon, and thought to somewhat compare this to Melonade, so I brewed the last of it up and stuck it in the fridge. It’s definitely quite different – somewhat less sweet, a more complex flavour (particularly interesting as this one’s herbal and Melonade’s on a green base), and significantly less “melon” flavouring despite being branded as honeydew + moringa. I actually find it more interesting to drink because of the depth of flavour, and I’m getting that same refreshing quality as with Strawberry Moringa, which I like. Too bad I didn’t drink this back when it actually came out, as it might have been nice to have a bit more to play around with.

God awful hot, I couldn’t stand this tea. However it tastes pretty good as a cold brew if I’m not looking for too intense of a flavor. But so bad hot, reminder for myself to never drink this hot. Would buy again if there was a sale, but for sure not full price.

I iced this and I am getting a melon fruitiness, that has an underlying drying quality. It also is on the fruity sweet/almost cloying side due to the blackberry leaves and apple. Not my favorite. I may toss it into my swap box tbh.

I should probably also mention that this resteeps into a very nice cold brew. I try to resteep almost every tea I make. Usually regular steeps of blacks, oolongs, and red rooibos, cold brews of everything else…it’s not an exact science. The results are often disappointing, but I’m happy to report that this was great.

Hmm.

Well, this doesn’t list stevia as an ingredient, but it came out super sweet. Maybe it’s from the candied melon and pineapple?

I mean, the melon flavor is nice enough. The mouthfeel is a bit odd, maybe from the moringa? There’s also a sort of herbal flavor in the aftertaste.

It would be fine if it wasn’t so sweet. Too sweet for me.

I’ve been wanting to try this one. (As I’ve been looking for more herbal heavy blends to drink at night.) As for the sweetness it’s probably due to the candied fruit and blackberry leaves.

Cameron B.

I suppose it must be. I do tend to overleaf fruit tisanes so that probably caused the sweetness to be more concentrated as well.

It is 49 degrees out there today, and partly sunny. I am SO MUCH ready for spring. I went through my teas, looking for something spring-like. Found this one and made a cup. Very light in color and lilght inflavor, but pleasant for an afternoon cup.

I had a doctor visit over webEX. Like, online. Weird, huh? She believes my sore bottom is Ischial bursitis. That is bursitis of the sit bones. It is probably the result of too much sitting. Her treatment plans includes avoiding sitting, applying ice to the area and taking aspirin.

I work 10 hours a day. Sitting at the computer. When I’m not sorking, I am generally sitting and reading, knitting, spinning, sewing ,etc.

I ordered one of those extendable desk that you can work at standing. It won’t arrive for 10 days.

So, off to lie on the floor with a family sized bag of frozen peas on my bum. Excuse me

While I am very sympathetic to your situation and wish you a speedy recovery, I can’t help but admit this gave me a good chuckle.

Martin Bednář

Same as Roswell Strange. It must hurt and I feel bad laughing on you, but it’s funny to imagine someone laying with frozen peas on bum.

Tea itself? Nothing I would drink I guess.

Maddy Barone

I think it is important to find the humor in any situatiuon. The cats seemed fascinated by the peas and took turns trying to knock them off my bum. This is what I have been reduced to. A giant cat toy laying on the floor like a beached whale with a slippery bag of peas on my bum.

More fun than a person should have to stand :) (Sorry, couldn’t resist!) Hope you’re feeling more comfortable soon!

Maddy Barone

LOL
I think it might be a little bit better already. But the doc said up to two weeks to see improvement so it mightbe all in my head.

Finally trying this as an iced tea! I really like this one a lot – it reminds me of Cantaloupe Ice! It steeps a lighter colour, but tastes almost the same. I’m not really sure what moringa is, but I probably can’t taste it. I just think this tea is really good and refreshing for the warmer weather !

I’m ok with this one. It’s kinda watermelon with a hint of pineapple…there’s a slippery element in the taste that has me a little worried . I wouldn’t need a lot of this – this sample might be enough, but i could see this maybe being refreshing as a cold brew in the summer. Just nothing really over the top. And the name is stupid to me. Doesn’t really make a lot of sense.

__Morgana__

Slippery? That would worry me too. LOL

not sure how else to discribe it haha

In store sample.

This was the first of many in store samples I had at a DT’s shop that I don’t frequent as often as the others in my path. This particular store has a better brewing system than the others apparently or all their sample teas were fresh and properly steeped.

I can’t tell you anything about this one because I don’t recall anything beyond the fact that I liked it. I will happily try it again.
