I decided to make this as a tea pop and while prepping it, I wasn’t paying close attention and read the instructions for a different tea that steeped for only two minutes instead of three. I then either turned off the two minute timer without paying attention or never set the timer in the first place so I don’t actually know how long this steeped for and I couldn’t say if its oversteeped or understeeped. This is what happens when you make tea while distracted, I guess.
Based on the flavor, I would say perhaps slightly understeeped since a lot of the front end of the sip is just carbonated water. Then I get a bit of ginger cola amazingness and then I get back to carbonated water. I blame myself but also think this is better as a cold brew or regular tea than a teapop perhaps.

I’ve done similar things more often than I can count. Being distracted is a great way to make bad tea.
This is one of my all-time favorites. I’ve never had it as Teapop, but it is very good as a cold brew, and the regular brew is a weakness for me.
That said, I have a tendency to either overleaf or oversteep because I love the flavor that much, and I’m a sucker for a good ginger “punch-in-the-throat” LOL!
