Pisces

First time I drank this I thought it was nice, but there were more interesting options in the "mystery" sampler I ordered along with it. But it's the one I keep going back to. And just ordered more of, because I ran out. And shipping is running long because holidays, which means I am going to go into withdrawal. WITHDRAWAL. I actually ordered two packs of it, to give one to my parents for Christmas -- but I'm now realizing I didn't order enough for *me*, so I might not give them this particular gift and keep it for myself.

Do not buy this tea, as you will almost certainly develop a dependence.

I realize this is more of a me problem, but I found the glitter offputing. The sparkle was very pretty, but ultimately it felt unappetizing to drink something that looked so unnatural, if mesmerizing. The flavor was fine with sip I managed. I loved the other tea I got and have already made another order from this store, but if you think the glitter may bother you, maybe try Moon Princess, which was another strawberry heavy tea I was considering trying but without the glitter.

This uplifting and surprisingly warming tea has such a gentle lemon kick to it and amazing strawberry chunks. It’s like drinking a homemade strawberry lemonade but in tea form.

I really enjoyed tasting the layers in this tea. Most of the time when I’ve had a tea with lemon or lemongrass with an additional fruit, it was super lemony and you can maybe smell but not taste the other fruit- not so with this one- you can actually taste the strawberries!! The lemony flavor is nice and not too much muchness, and (for me) it felt like tasting the ingredients in tiny waves until they all kind of blended together just before you swallow, like “oh there’s lemon, white tea, there’s the strawberries, now the lemongrass, but mellower… and yeah, it was really kind of a neat experience, plus the sparkly glitter is so fun and relaxing to watch in the tea press. This Pisces is delighted!

An excellent tea for a gray day when you want something with zing but more subtle than black tea with lemon. I haven't tried it iced, but it seems like it would be good for that as well; like an Arnold Palmer but less sweet. The tea itself is a light brew, so the glitter is extremely subtle.
