Found in the back of my desk at work, I realized this little packet that came from my boyfriend’s brother back in January (who got it from his fiancée). It sat there for so long because:
1) It’s powdered green tea. We’ve all had bad experiences with that.
2) The blatant health claims on the packet and the healthy lifestyle marketing both rub me wrong.
Yesterday was an absolute shit day. I’m recovering slowly today. Don’t have the desire to make tea. Perfect chance to try this little gift. I opted for warm preparation over cold.
It pours out of the packet looking like turmeric powder (expires April 2025). A strange, thick white foam forms on the top after adding hot water. Looks like dark, clear apple cider. Tastes like very old oxidized green tea powder, that brown taste, you know it. Not in your face, but that taste is there. The spearmint is nice, not overdone, but my mouth is left with a sticky dry sweetness I don’t enjoy.
It’s overall not as scary is it sounds but never would I buy it and I certainly do not recommend it, not even for situations that might call for such an ease-of-use product. This is trash. My stomach hurts.
