I hate this name… I can’t explain why, but something about it squicks me out.
The tea itself was alright, but a bit simple. For a recreation of Hibiscus Splash, which is a pretty sweet/juicy cherry profile, this leans rather hard on the tartness of the hibiscus and cranberry in the blend. What I did like though was that, for a tart profile, it wasn’t really sharp – and that’s a fine nuance/distinction to me, but I appreciate a fuller and more thick feeling and tasting tartness. I wish there wasn’t stevia here, because I really tasted it in the finish – but overall it was a pretty good general hibiscus fruit tisane. There’s just so many of those out there that I doubt it’ll be a memorable one.
I immediately hear this title in the voice of Binky the Clown from the old 80s Garfield and Friends cartoon show I used to watch growing up. “Heeeeeeeeeeey Cat!”
Thanks for the review and the new term (for me) of “squicks” — (which I immediately love).
