Urban Remedy
Edit CompanyRecent Tasting Notes
Found this in my aunt’s tea drawer, along with some other new-to-me herbal teas. I’ve been nasty bloated for two weeks after eating something that didn’t agree with me, so thought I’d give this a try.
I’m feeling judgemental. Urban Remedy is a plant-based food, beverage and lifestyle company that offers many promises wrapped in a squeaky-clean feel-good urban image and plenty of plastic packaging. I will stop before it gets ugly.
This has 6 traditional Chinese herbs, only a few of which are well known to westerners – peppermint and ginger. It tastes like an herbal-sweet peppermint tea with a barely perceptible butteriness. I feel like it should taste medicinal, stronger, despite being steeped for 20 minutes or so.
Flavors: Herbal, Peppermint, Sweet
Two weeks is a long time for something you ate to wreck your gut for! Hope you find relief soon! I too am judgy AF. Right there with you on annoyance with attempted manipulation by superficial advertising and wasteful packaging. Don’t get me started on those wine gift baskets because I have a good 5 minute rant on those things!
Thanks for understanding the absurdity and for the sympathy. Made a big pot of congee with all the good and gentle things.
I am third one in the party who hates superficial ads and wasteful packagings! Which is ironic, considering my tea bag wrapper collection.
