chrine drank Rooibos Peach Bloom by Teavana

Backlogging. Two nights ago.
This was the tisane I wanted to drink the previous night. A tasty peach taste with a tail of green rooibos. Lighter in flavor, this tisane could stand to be steep an additional minute next time. I had misremembered that rooibos could take multiple steeps. The 2nd steep was water with a hint of peach rooibos. Perhaps it was red rooibos that took two steeps or perhaps no rooibos.

I can very rarely get decent re-steeps out of any rooibos.

I gave up trying to resteep rooibos.

The only time i’ve resteeped rooibos was when I had it mixed with a tea. I tried once resteeping by itself and it was such a failure.

Indeed, I will not be trying to resteep this again. On further thinking, it may well have been an herbal blend that included green rooibos that I got two steeps out of.

Bio

I’m a 28 year old pharmacist. I live with my husband and our two cats, Bin and Sakai. I love tea, coffee, reading, and learning.

I’ve drank tea all my life but recently my close friend Spautz became an educated tea drinker and started educating me. Since then I’ve tried white teas and oolong and learned that I love rooibos.
