The scent of the dry tea is dominated by a very melony note of prickly pear. On sight it’s definitely a rooibos, but eyes closed it smells pale green. I prefer keeping my eyes open, though, as it’s such a pretty tea – riddled with perfect little rose buds and chunks of fruit.

In the cup, it’s quite flavourful, but still manages to come off light, accessible and eminently drinkable.

So, when I had this, I realized I could barely remember what actual prickly pears tasted like, just that I was never particularly fond of them. They’re in season right now, so I bought a couple. And ew. It’s the papaya-like blandness that gets me down; it’s like a mealy papaya, with some additional grainy, watermelony textures, and seeds that are like passion fruit seeds at an early stage of beta testing. This tea is all the prickly pear I need in my life.
