Mastress Alita’s Sipdown Challenge Tuesday, February 9th: National Pizza Day –Tea #3
Thanks very much for the sample, AJRimmer! I had a second steep of this tonight and the other last night, so it counts for Pizza Day. I figured there was a fair amount of vegetables in this blend, so it COULD count for Pizza Day. I was trying not to look at the list of ingredients before sipping, to try to blind taste test it… it both smells and tastes like mostly cantaloupe with a hint of tanginess, like maybe a single piece of hibiscus made it into the infuser. I did notice cucumbers in the blend, so this is almost like a no caffeine version of their cantaloupe cucumber green tea. Other than that tartness replacing any flavor that might have been from green tea, I can’t really tell a difference. Not as much citrus as I would think from the ingredients, when I finally look at the list. I’m just VERY happy this wasn’t heavily noticeable on the loathed tomatoes. But the cantaloupe flavor is fine with me. This is actually very cheap right now!
Steep #1 // 25 minutes after boiling // 3 minute steep
