aisling of tea drank Luscious Watermelon by DAVIDsTEA

Had this iced in-store as well (we stopped in, got our tea, visited the rest of the mall, and stopped in again on the way out). Again, a little weak, but still tasty!

My wife said it smelled like banana, and oh, I wish she hadn’t. After that, it tasted good, yes, but all I could think of to describe the flavor is “banana”. There was some melon in there, yes, but it was more of a tropical smoothie to me. I need to try it again.

I’m broken hearted that luscious watermelon has returned but mojito has not. The tea gods are cruel to me.

Is this the one that the salespeople kept eating the watermelon pieces out of the bins?

Yep. I’m sure it’ll happen again this year.

My tastes in tea have changed, so I should update this as well. I find myself leaning more towards rooibos and herbals, if only for their great ability to chill in my travel mug for hours and not get weird on me. When I have time to properly brew a cuppa, I lean towards white teas (which I only steep for 30 seconds) and black teas (which only get 2-3 minutes from me). I cannot stand green teas, they’re too fiddly for my tastes. Oolongs are great, but a bit fiddly as well. However, I love watching oolongs open up in my looseleaf brewer. I’m slowly discovering mates and falling for them…there are many I look forward to trying!

So…yeah. That’s me and my tea!
