Sipdown (1375)!
Thank you VariaTEA for the birthday present – I’ve been avoiding Happy Turtle because I just knew that as soon as I saw the site I would need to order. Nerdy teas are my kryptonite. So, this was a very welcome surprise/good way of skirting that hesitancy.
I cannot begin to tell you how delighted I am by the cleverness of an Ursula/Little Mermaid themed tea being built around a “Throat Help” concept. That is just so clever and I feel like I must bow down to the person who’s brain came up with that idea!
The taste is pretty nice – definitely one of the more palatable throat oriented blends that I’ve tried. I greatly appreciate that it’s not loaded up with licorice root – I know that’s a very functional ingredient for sore throats but I loathe the taste so much. This is warming and cozy, with a focus on cinnamon and just a bit of a fruity (orange?) undertone.
It’s not blowing my mind or anything, but it’s definitely hitting the spot in the moment.
Ooh very smart. Not sure but I think I consider it more Geeky than nerdy though.
Licorice root is a lovely flavor!
