Sipdown
I had about 5 tsb leftover, so I tossed the remainder into a 64oz pitcher. It’s still cold in Ohio, but the sun is out, so I needed to brew something cold to encourage these feelings of gratitude. This happened to be the next one in the sipdown pile…It’s a great iced tea….I needed to caffeinate for work. Win-win-win.
I realized today that this is VERY sweet. I had to water it down a lot, on top of the ice, to really tame the sweetness. I get very strong cherry notes (which is grand since I’m all about cherry flavoring, whenever it’s done properly). The black tea base gives it an extra something (body/texture?) which reminds me of cherry stems, I guess. shrugs
On the last note, my wife noted it’s like cherry cola; which makes sense. I’ve not had soda in 12+ years, but I can see what she means.
Flavors: Cherry, Cola
Oh stevia, how I hate you. I know it’s a natural sweetner but it’s so so sweet that it tastes fake to me…
anyways, I forgot this morning that this tea had it in it. I added milk, fully expecting it to curdle, but it didn’t and I added some sugar, which I shouldn’t have done because it is just SO sweet now that I am honestly not even enjoying it at all. I think I’m going to try again without the sugar and see how bad the stevia is. If it’s super bad, I might not keep this one. It’s got a great fruit flavour to it, but it’s just so darn sweet. OR I might try it iced. I like my iced teas sweet, so maybe that’ll work in my favour?
#tiffanys2021sipdown Tea #92 overall / Tea #8 for March.
Friday 3/5 I bought a bunch of this tea in pitcher packs/2 oz bags etc from sales/deals last year on DTs website since the tea was released. It sounds right up my alley (the fruity part). Unfortunately I need to trust myself on the stevia part. I’m not sure but the common theme of many teas that taste fine but icky artificial aftertaste is always stevia so I’ve blamed it on that. I can sip a little bit of this but not a bunch. Thank goodness for the boyfriend and I made a cold brew pitcher of this for him last week that I believe he finished this date (3/5)… I never had any of it this time.

Got this on a whim since Davids had a sale and I wanted something different. Definitely cherry, definitely berry. Almost syrupy in flavor and texture. Great as an iced tea when I’m in the mood for those flavors, but I don’t have any interest in trying it hot.
Flavors: Berries, Cherry, Sweet
Iced Tea Sipdown (268)
This is nice but tbh I think I hoped for this to be Cherry Snowcone or whatever the cherry tea I used to like from DAVIDs was. That’s a weird expectation for a new tea to replicate an old one but for some reason it’s what I wanted so I was a bit sad when this tea wasn’t that. So while I enjoyed this sample enough, I don’t think I need more.
First tea of the morning – had it during a Microsoft Teams meeting right at the start of my day. If I haven’t said it before, I hate remote meetings – it’s always hard to hear people, and I feel like I work in an office where everyone is so communicative with their hands and facial expressions that some of the meaning is always a little bit lost…
But, you do what you’ve gotta do.
I’m continuing to love this blend – that initial wave of adoration of the cherry flavour really hasn’t faded for me at all. It reminds me, as a hot cup, a lot of Cherry Nibs but juicier and tangier. Undercut with that licorice-y note though. Red licorice, to be clear, not black licorice/anise/licorice root type flavours.
With Goji Green being discontinued now, this may be my closest thing to a replacement. I loved that red licorice/raspberry note in Goji Green and I feel like it’s here too.
Friendly reminder that I do not numerically rate DAVIDsTEA blends as I’m currently employed there and it would be an obvious conflict of interest. Any blends you see with numerical ratings were rated prior to my employment there. These reviews are a reflection of my personal thoughts and feelings regarding the teas, and not the company’s.
I’m used to remote meetings as my office is geographically dispersed but we just moved to Microsoft Teams and it sucks. Give me Zoom or the old Skype any day.
I’ve never used Zoom before; it’s probably a miracle I’ve navigated the pandemic so far without it… It’s interesting that you prefer it though – what do you think the advantages are?
Teams would be great if my company hadn’t disabled all of its best features.
teams has visual, so you should be able to have face to face meetings. We do it all the time at work. I despise skype vs teams…..zoom would be fine, though teams has a lot of collaboration tools we use, now that people are getting used to things
Usually only the presenter will have visual (and shared screen versus their face) – with meetings that sometimes have 10+ everyone having their screens on at once can mess with the flow too…
I think we’re getting Teams at work soon, but right now we mostly use Zoom for meetings and for classes. It really sucks because something about Zoom keeps disconnecting my Bluetooth headphones. I hate being plugged in when I’m in a group meeting.
We use(d) only Teams for classes, my brother uses it in work every day andd haven’t heard any complains, only that it’s different than Skype. But I think it is what are you used to use ;)
I would rather not even to try work with those programms, but what we can do, right?
