So I’m finally giving this one a rating. I tried this at work today, and used water that wasn’t quite boiling. That seems to have helped, though it’s still not as exciting as i hoped it would be. It still smells DIVINE!I just wish the strawberry was more intense. I can get more of the creamy taste out of this brew but it’s still pretty bland.
I’m almost tempted to get Azzrian to send me some of hers to see if this is a bad batch or something. I really wanted to like this tea more than i do :( Here’s hoping the blueberry zabaglione on it’s way is better.

I had trouble with this as well, and I was going to try a 2.5 minute steep time. Have you tried that?
not yet haha. I’m sadly not really set up for cold brewing yet. Small friedge, other half always had a bunch of crap in it etc.. haha i’ll keep that in mind though.
Azzrian – so funny story.. i stared at your comment for like 3 mins trying to figure out what you were talking about.. message you about what… huh? yeah… i’m sleepy this afternoon.
not a bad batch, I had it long ago and felt the same way.

Not yet tigress. The tea cooling brought out a bit more of the flavours
Have you tried cold-brewing this yet? Hot brewing did nothing for me but cold brewing was amazing!!

I had some of this from Azz and wasn’t particularly taken by it. To each their own!
