Kanpe Tea from DAVIDsTEA

I was served this as the Tea of the Day on ice.

This tea is very sour and very bitter. I do believe that I have a strong sensitivity to the hibiscus. The overall taste was a sour, bitter fruity concoction with a stevia-like aftertaste.

It definitely has hibiscus in it that can get away from you. I have largely avoided this one because I’m not supposed to have banana, but I’ve given a few cups of it at my Mom’s store some sips. It’s okay if you keep the steep short enough to tame the hibby. Otherwise, it’s pretty blech.

Thanks for the advice on this one. Maybe I’ll try it again in the future when I am able to control the infusion parameters.

I find that hibiscus lowers my blood pressure. I try to avoid it. I guess it is good for people who suffer of high blood pressure.
