I really like this combination of plantain, coconut and green rooibos. I enjoy green rooibos, but don’t have many blends that feature it. The scent of this tea is of sweet plantain. It reminds me a little bit of banana baby food — mushy, creamy, strangely comforting. Sipping… there is a very nice balance of plantain and coconut here. The coconut adds a rather tangy note to the otherwise sweet and starchy plantain. The rooibos gives the cup a lovely freshness.

I’ve noticed that I have to be in the mood for this particular blend, but it’s delicious & really hits the spot when I do drink it.

Sounds interesting, like a pina colada minus the pina! Lupicia’s Golden Honey Dew is a green rooibos too.

Dustin- It’s definitely very tasty! I would give this one a try if the components sound like something you’d like. I had been wanting to try the honeydew from Lupicia, but they’re all out of stock!
