A try me pack from my Spring Surprise Tea Box.

This smells exactly like a chocolate covered strawberry, with extra strawberry syrup poured over it. I wanted ice cream just from smelling the bag, and I’m sure I looked a bit odd, breathing in tea aroma so seriously.

Brewed up, it doesn’t smell as fruity. The chocolate definitely comes out to say hello. And I’m not sure I wanted it to! I just didn’t enjoy drinking this and it reminded me of my experience with Della Terra’s S’mores. Perhaps I’m not a fan of their chocolate flavor? Time will tell.

Besides the odd chocolate flavoring, the underlying tea base just tasted off to me. But I’m pretty sure someone else would enjoy this? I tried adding milk and sugar; it was better, but just too much for me.

I’ve just recently discovered the world of loose tea and am really enjoying myself. I’m still in SAMPLE EVERYTHING mode, and likely always will be.

I love green teas, chai, and citrus flavors. I don’t mind hibiscus. I will drink a bitter green tea, but won’t drink bitter black tea. I’m working on figuring out which black teas work for me.

I tend to drink my tea without milk or sugar.

I’m using Steepster’s Cupboard function to actually reflect my current tea stock, otherwise I’d never be able to remember what I already have.
