Sunrize Tea

Strange VariaTEA TTB – Tea #31

This seems like a pleasant enough herbal tisane, but something about it is giving me dirt vibes… Is it the valerian root? Is it just old? No idea. I’ve had valerian in other tisanes and don’t recall it tasting this way. It’s not horrible but it’s offputting.

Anyway, not a keeper.

#tiffanys2021sipdown Tea #87 overall / Tea #3 for March
#drinkwhatyouown March slot 1/25

Tuesday 3/2 Another tea I pulled out 3/1 and ended up drinking 3/2. Brewed this hot with the full sample pack in 32 oz water (3/1) and then sipped it cold/chilled the next day (3/2). I love anything cranberry, so I had high hopes for this tea. I don’t know if it was because it’s an older sample or what, but it just tasted like a light fruity tea (I don’t taste any distinctive ingredients). I think I bought a full size (2 or 3 oz) bag of this from her when I bought 2 full size tea & 5 sampler pack from her last April. Will revisit and not judge just from this one experience.

Sipdown (264)

In December I signed up for the Amoda box to get the 52 Teas box. Then I forgot to cancel the subscription so another box of caffeine free/low caffeine blends arrived. None of the blends were particularly interesting unfortunately, especially since they all seemed to have a fresh and healthy vibe which is not my thing when it comes to teas. This was one of the blends in the box. I basically gave all of the sample away, saving merely a serving for me so I could get in the easy Sipdown.

Drinking it now, it’s fine. Not offensive by any means but also not really anything. It’s sort of sweet floral and sort of green rooibos base. Nothing overly flavourful or interesting. I suppose that’s better than bad, which is what I expected. However, it’s not good enough by any means that I regret giving it away.
