I’ve had this for quite awhile and have been putting off drinking it, as I was suspecting I wouldn’t care for it (I also don’t drink teas at night very often). I was right, this isn’t for me.
The combination of hibiscus and lavender just does not work. The 2 flavors seem to be fighting rather than working harmoniously, and it makes for a really odd sour/herbal combination. I could detect a bit of lemon verbena, but no rose or chamomile over the hibiscus.
Flavors: Herbal, Sour
Hello! I live in Los Angeles with my boyfriend and 4 cats [+however many foster cats I have at the moment]. I’m also obsessed with all things spooky.
I became obsessed with the world of tea through DavidsTea years ago. I love to try new brands, so I’m constantly on the look out for new-to-me companies.

The idea of hibiscus + lavender gives me metaphorical hives! Yeesh!
