I remember not enjoying my first cup of this, but I forgot to take notes, so here I go trying it again, this time as a cold brew. It’s very sour and off-putting. Rooibos fruit blends so often end up being weird like this. These flavors just don’t work together. There’s no hint of cheesecake. I only taste gross, artificial berry. I don’t want another cup.

The issue I always find I have when fruit flavors are paired with (red) rooibos is my palate then tastes a sort of medicinal/cough syrupy sort of taste from the rooibos, that I don’t get when red rooibos is paired with other flavors.
It’s such a shame because I love rooibos, and I love fruit teas, but the fruit should definitely stick with green rooibos!
Ya, I don’t have that issue with fruity green rooibos!
