One of my favorite cold brewed teas. Green tea with big pieces of dried orange, candied mango and pineapple. Very refreshing. I am really impress with Sub Rosa’s tea there is no sugar or artificial ingredients. Another one of my favorite teas cold brewed is Mint Mojito.

Flavors: Mango, Orange, Pineapple

I ordered a four cup sampler of this tea. I wish I had a bigger bag it is delicious. Tastes like a peanut butter cookie. Delicious as a hot latte I will have to try as an iced latte too. It is seasonal part of the Girl Scout cookie collection. I have only tried this one and oatmeal raisin cookie. I ordered a larger bag of the Oatmeal Raisin Cookie. Wish I could order the combo pack to try all the teas but I will have to wait till next year I have ordered too many teas lately.

Flavors: Almond, Cinnamon, Cream, Hazelnut, Peanut

This tea is delicious definitely tastes like an oatmeal raisin cookie. I am enjoying it with maple sugar. I have also tried Oatmeal Raisin Cookie from The Necessiteas. I think I like The Necessiteas a little more but this one is a close second. It is unique in that it has lemon, sea salt, raisins, golden raisins and whole milk powder as some of the ingredients. I think the lemon intensifies the other flavors. I will have to try it as a latte too. This tea is seasonal and I have a sample bag from a bundle collection. I just ordered another bag! I am looking forward to trying Rum Cake Black Tea next. I really look forward to trying more of her teas.

Flavors: Cookie, Oatmeal, Raisins, Spices

This is a very good chocolate tea does not taste artificial at all. I love the dark chocolate flavor. The cinnamon and ginger is not too strong. I like that there is no artificial flavors and sweetener . Really good as a latte with almond milk and stevia.

drank Papaya Mango Mate by Sub Rosa Tea

Well the sipdown fever has finally made me crack open this little sample, which I have had for years, and has sat neglected, as it just isn’t my thing.
I don’t like mango, I could care less about papaya, and mate is not something I’ve really tried so far.
But! This was not an unpleasant cup. There was a light fruitiness to it that was actually nice.
Still, I won’t rank it, because its not my thing.
But it is a sipdown, and I am now at 50 teas! Woo!

I’m not a papaya fan either. Holeeee I don’t think I will EVER get to 50. Dedication!

I really like the spices in this tea. It definitely reminds me of cooler weather and begs to be sipped hot with a splash of milk (don’t mind if I do!) There is a touch of sweetness in this tea that I really like.

I drank this iced, cold brewed and the apricot really stands out. It looked like a green tea at first because the color did not deepen, but it’s definitely black!

Preparation
Iced 8 min or more

drank Key Lime Ceylon by Sub Rosa Tea
5 tasting notes

Goodness, this tea is great cold-brewed! I brewed it overnight (about 1/2 oz in 1.5 L water) and it couldn’t be any more perfect.
The color of the tea makes it look like a green tea, but it’s black. The key lime flavors really stand out. No sweetener needed.

Preparation
Iced 8 min or more

This is one of those dessert teas that goes all the way in the dessert direction. I added about half a packet of sweetener and a splash of half and half to an 8oz cup, and if I hadn’t made it myself I probably wouldn’t have believed it wasn’t some kind of fancy hot chocolate! The overall flavor I get is marshmallow, interestingly enough, with chocolate and coconut as strong secondary flavors. Both the aroma and the taste are very strong!

I love this a lot, but fair warning: it doesn’t really taste like tea at all.

drank Carrot Cake Rooibos by Sub Rosa Tea

The dry “leaf” of this smells absolutely heavenly — not much like a carrot cake, but a slightly sweet and pleasantly spicy rooibos. It’s nice to look at as well, with fairly large carrot, coconut, walnut, and ginger chunks!

I’m not very impressed by the taste of this brewed up with nothing added, but since it’s obviously supposed to be a dessert-esque blend, I expected I’d have to add some sweetener. That brings out a nice spiciness (cinnamon and ginger) and makes it taste lovely: spicy enough to seem extra warming and soothing but not so much that those that are bad with spicy foods and drinks (like me) will be overwhelmed! Does it live up to the carrot cake name? Not really, and I truly wish that it did, but I still enjoy it!
