Cat-Nap drank Raspberry Cream Pie by DAVIDsTEA

85 tasting notes

A few days ago I made this as an iced tea and was not overly impressed and was ready to pitch the entire tin in the trash and call it a day.

But….

After lunch today (and a small scoop of vanilla bean icecream) I wanted a nice hot tea to sip on while I was watching my children destroy the house (ok we were really watching The Hobbit). I grabbed this willing to try it again as a hot tea (I currently have rose all day and strawberry rhubarb parfait steeping into iced teas).

I am so glad I did this. I loved it hot and would recommend it to others. It has a pleasant chocolate mixed with berries taste and that odd sludgy film that was created while iced was not there.

Flavors: Raspberry, Sweet, White Chocolate

Preparation

185 °F / 85 °C 7 min, 0 sec

Bio

I am happily married to my husband who definitely is the chatterbox of our 20 year relationship. Together we have three rambunctious children 2 daughters and a son who is stuck in the middle of the girls. We also have a 17 year old fur baby (cat) who likes to the rule house and tell us at midnight it is time to pay attention to him rather than sleep.

I am an elementary school teacher, teaching grade 3/4 with a mixed bag of learning abilities and educational needs. I love my job and share my passion for learning with my students.

I have been a tea drinker since I was allowed to take my first sip, which was very early in life and was mostly the Rose Hip and Earl Grey my grandma would brew by the pot full and serve when company came over. Later in my teen life (once I had more choice of my own) I fell in love with peppermint and green teas. I love hot brews and iced teas. Now I will try just about any kind of tea as long as it doesn’t contain nuts or gluten (damn allergies ruin everything).

I prefer my tea to be natural, meaning without any added sweeteners or cream/milk. I want to be able to experience the tea as it was intended.

My Rating Scale:
0-20: OMG what did I just put into my mouth! I cannot keep this it must be trashed or rehomed.
20-40: Horrible, not something I will drink again, but someone else may still like it
40-60: Ok, nothing overly special, it is kept around because others like it
60-80: Good, either I or someone else in the house liked it
80-95: Great! Will drink this occasionally and will keep it around
95-100: Absolutely amazing, and must keep it in stock at all times!

I invite you to join me as I go through my stash and share my thoughts and opinions on the teas as I and my family drink them (or eat them as my 3 year old says when I use matcha in icing)
