Thanks to Meghann M for this tea.

I like how the apple pieces float at the top while steeping.

I like hibiscus, I like hibiscus and apple. I do not like this tea, there is an odd citrus note in it. I like sour apple candies but this is more layered – lemon then hibiscus then apple as opposed to a solid sour apple flavor.

I love caffeine! I prefer tea to coffee. I prefer my flavors to be in your face, not subtle. I plan to use this blog to keep track of the teas I have tried.

I get my daily dose of caffeine from Starbucks (Grande soy no water chai latte).
