Smells and tastes of Vanilla and Rooibos. I had about a half a dozen sips HOT and let it cool and then went iced with it. I like it better iced! It’s a lovely refreshing drink. Very smooth and creamy! The orange is more in the last part of the sip and aftertaste.

ok n00b question: is tea iced when u make it like normall then just let it cool down in the fridge or is it iced when u steep it in cold water to start with? or just both? which teas do u normally make in iced versions? curious me i know…
Good question…there are several ways to do it and I do do it different ways – for this one specifically I was in a hurry and added 1 iced cube after it already cooled. I did over infuse to begin with so I didn’t lose much or any flavor. I know Cofftea and some other people ice them with iced cubes made of the same tea sometimes so it doesn’t change the flavor at all…
other times I just refrigerate but I didn’t have time for that this morning. :)
