Lala drank Mango Fruit Punch by DAVIDsTEA

871 tasting notes

Made this one as an iced tea. Steeped for 10 min, then added ice.

I was a bit disappointed with this one as an iced tea, but I had assumed that before I even made it as an iced tea. I tend to prefer herbal blends cold brewed, instead of as an iced tea.

This one still has the mango and pineapple juice flavour, but it wasn’t thick like juice or like it was hot. There is a taste like flat carbonation. It tasted fairly sweet, without having to add any sweeteners.

Still good as an iced tea, but would not be my preference. Cold brew review coming soon.

Bio

I am a lifetime tea lover.

I did foray into the world of coffee for a period of time, but I returned to my true love. I still, however, enjoy a good cup of java.

My all time favorite tea is Earl Grey, which I drink every morning, the stronger the bergamot the better. I definitely prefer natural oil of bergamot to artificial flavouring.

I mostly like black and dark oolong teas. My current favs are Fujian blacks, Keemun and Assams, and Wuyi oolongs. I gravitate towards anything with lychee in it. I also drink a lot of herbal blends but am wary of hibiscus. I do not favour mate, or pu’erh tea, although I have found a few blends that I like. (I so badly want to like straight pu’erh tea but it all tastes gross to me. I keep trying though). Rooibos, green and white teas fall somewhere in the middle. I find myself gravitating towards heavily roasted oolongs and teas from Paris/France based companies.

I love iced teas and cold brews.

My current tea goal is to make the perfect cup of chai from scratch – almost there…I think.

I am in love with the whole experience of tea.
