Five trillion pats on the back for sipping this down without throwing it out. I discovered that the most tolerable way to drink this is to add a tablespoon to ground coffee and brew them together. The strong coffee notes cover up the overly burnt, carcinogenic notes of this Orzo “tea” (and those are some huge quotation marks there) when drinking it straight.
In my coffee mug, I’m left with a layer of roasted Orzo and a touch of caramel on top of the coffee. Still, I’m never buying any of these Orzo creatures again.

Yeah, good on you for getting through it. When I really don’t like something I just try to give it away to friends/family with a warning XD
I have some in my cupboard from when I was a vegan/on a no-caffeine (no tannin) kick. I’ll get around to drinking it again sometime, probably. Oops.
Wow, you should get the die-hard medal, that sounds intense!

Haha I just feel so bad throwing stuff out when they’re so expensive!

That’s a shame. Orzo with honey and caramel sounds like a good dessert but a horrible tea.
To be fair, a lot of people seem to like this, so I’m the freak. I doubt many are rushing to give it away to friends and family!
