Babble drank Strawberry Zabaglione by 52teas

Thanks to Azzrian for this sample.

When I first brewed this tea hot, I didn’t think it was anything special. Maybe because I brewed it a little too long and it got bitter? Anyway, it wasn’t doing anything for me hot.

However, I put it in the fridge to let it cool down and man-oh-man, this tea is DELICIOUS cold. I can taste the strawberries and cream so easily and they are so delicious. Black teas can be hit or miss for me, but this is so delicious. If I had more of a sample, I would have tried my hand at a cold brew, but alas my sample was small. I definitely plan to order this when I get a chance (and go through the rest of my tea stash).

I still have a cup’s worth of this left from Azzrian… really need to try it again, because I didn’t think it was anything too special the first time!

Yeah, like I said, the tea wasn’t anything special hot. I recommend when you drink it next time, you drink it cold. That’s where the flavors really came in.

Profile

Bio

So the short story is, a few years ago I was VERY MUCH into tea. And then a lot of things happened, and I got out of tea for a while. And now, I’m back.

To me, tea is the missing puzzle piece for my healthy lifestyle. When I drink tea I am encouraged to eat healthy and be active. I drink tea because I simply enjoy the taste, but the health aspects are just an added bonus.

I love all types of teas, although greens and oolongs tend to be my favorite. I also love a good herbal.

Unless otherwise stated, I drink my teas straight. To brew I either use my ingenuiTEA or T-Sac (for teas that don’t expand much). One of these days I might break down and buy a Breville, but I’m trying to resist..

I’m kinda strict when rating my teas. I rarely give a tea above a 95. Teas that I really like I keep in the 95-85 category. I’ve yet to give a tea 100 yet. So, if you see a tea about 95, that means I thought it was an amazing tea!
