CupofTree drank Awake™ Full Leaf Tea by Tazo Tea

Had a nice experience with this one at starbucks yesterday. Normally the only way I can drink this tea is iced and sweetened as its just too strong hot. Its pretty good as an iced black tea lemonade as well.
So today I tried something new and ordered it as a latte with soy milk and vanilla syrup. It was actually very pleasant and smooth, while not being too sweet either. I still took the tea bag out pretty quickly to not steep it strong and once I finished the cup, I re-brewed it again with just their hot water, raw sugar, and some cinnamon and it was pretty yummy and light. Best enjoyed in a mug.

I love Starbucks.
The only thing I order there is a “Tall Hot Water”
Is is free, no charge.
The baristas know my order, no waiting in line for it to be made.
Bring your own teabags – no one cares
Use Starbucks Milk and Sugar
Grab a seat and enjoy.

Thats a good idea! I’ll have to ask for hot water in a mug because I hate all the waste Starbucks generates. It tastes better that way too.

I was about to buy this actually. Now I will definitely have to try it.

Profile

Bio

I began my tea journey in January of this year (with loose-leaf that is) and am now completely obsessed with all things tea.

My favorite teas tend to be flavored and non-flavored black teas. Iced or hot. I have a favorite white, green, and herbal as well. I don’t like smoky teas or strong rooibos teas.

Along with tea, I also love photography and nature and combine the two as much as possible. Forests and trees are my passion and I love learning about them in and out of school.

Location

Currently in south fl where forests and tea shops are non existent. I will be moving to the Pacific Northwest for the trees, my forest studies, and perfect tea weather!
