Thought I would try this since I slept really well last night. I’m not really feeling groggy. I think Guayusa is supposed to be a bit more stimulating than my typical black breakfast blend. I’ve been eyeballing the package since it came it and I just don’t want to wait any longer.
It seems like there is a definite green category of tea with diverse flavors. For example some of the green teas are a fresh, crisp green flavor. The oolong I tried was a sweet, heavy green taste. This is green like grass that just been cut. Yet it is still sweet. A funny toasty like taste has shown up. It’s very faint. Ghost toasted tea. Who ya gonna call?!
I like it but I think I’d like a flavored guayusa just as well.

LOL Ghost Toast
I just tried this with those dried berries you sent. It’s awesome with the berry addition. Thanks for the sample of berries!
What berries?
The berry tisane from teavivre ;)
Yeah what he said!
was it blueberry? Good gawd I am getting old I think.
The name is blueberry fruit tea.
Yeah thats it! Okay thanks sorry senior moment I guess they come earlier and earlier these days.
Oh and I bet it WAS good in this! Humm wonder if I have more of that sample left to play with.
Hehe you crack me up. Senior moments. I bet it’s more like I have so much tea which one did I send? :D
LOL maybe :)
Hey, so you know, Guayusa isn’t green tea. It’s not tea at all. At least, not in the strict sense of the word, referring to infusions of the Tea plant (camellia sinensis). This is actually a kind of caffeinated Holly (Ilex Guayusa), making it tea in the same way that rooibos is. Still tasty though. And cheap by the ounce.
