There are two other Happy Planet drinks in the Steepster system that I added in back when I was still working at Sobeys and living in Saskatoon, both of which have tea in them. I swear I added this into the system around the same time – it has yerba mate in it along with a jumble of mostly red fruits and apple.
I drink this semi often – mostly on days when I don’t have much time/energy to fuss with other things. Not really because of the “yerba mate” but because I do find it fairly energizing and I like the red fruit flavour. I don’t typically log it because I assumed it was already in the system, and I don’t want to flood Steepster with “RTD Smoothie” tasting notes. However, I wanted to log it tonight because I’m drinking one now and it tastes more like yerba mate (and banana) than it ever has before. I’m not sure if there was a recipe change or I got a weird bottle or what, but I took my first hearty sip and was immediately overtaken by the distinct note of mate in it…
Majorly threw me off…
