drank Green Tea Frappuccino Blended Creme by Starbucks

I had to pick one of these up because KS reviews them all the time. I haven’t had one in a long time. It tasted delicious. A little on the sweet side but I forgot to ask for less sweetener when I ordered. It tastes like green tea powder, not necessarily matcha, mixed with ice and cream. The green tea taste is more sweet grass than vegetable flavour. I splurged and went for the large dollop of (fake) whipped cream on top.

I’d love to review something else when my wife drags me in there but this is the only thing I have found I enjoy – over sweet, fake, and all. Actually, since I have never had matcha before, I did not know this wasn’t the real thing. Ignorance is bliss. :)

Well they say it is made with “green tea powder (matcha)” but it doesn’t taste like true matcha to me. Either way it is delicious, no matter the ingredients.

Bio

I am a lifetime tea lover.

I did foray into the world of coffee for a period of time, but I returned to my true love. I still, however, enjoy a good cup of java.

My all time favorite tea is Earl Grey, which I drink every morning, the stronger the bergamot the better. I definitely prefer natural oil of bergamot to artificial flavouring.

I mostly like black and dark oolong teas. My current favs are Fujian blacks, Keemun and Assams, and Wuyi oolongs. I gravitate towards anything with lychee in it. I also drink a lot of herbal blends but am wary of hibiscus. I do not favour mate, or pu’erh tea, although I have found a few blends that I like. (I so badly want to like straight pu’erh tea but it all tastes gross to me. I keep trying though). Rooibos, green and white teas fall somewhere in the middle. I find myself gravitating towards heavily roasted oolongs and teas from Paris/France based companies.

I love iced teas and cold brews.

My current tea goal is to make the perfect cup of chai from scratch – almost there…I think.

I am in love with the whole experience of tea.
