I am running out of tea fast in Florida so I am praying my teas from my dad arrive soon. After this cup, I only have one cup worth of dry leaf left and it will be missed greatly when it is gone. This will definitely be a restock asap but there is no David’s here so I will have to wait to return home.
Anyways, as for this cup, I prepared it as a makeshift tea soda (My first tea soda ever!!). I brewed 2 tsps in half a mug (about 4-6 oz) for the normal brewing time (4 min at boiling) and then filled the test of the mug with club soda. The end result was a warm but tasty carbonated drink. There is a hint of the flavor water gets when it is carbonated but mostly the raspberry and coconut flavors shine like usual. I think I still prefer this hot but not a bad introduction to a tea soda.

The only question is do I go for the 100 grams and get a free tin or do I refill one of the many tins I own and go with less than 100 grams?? I really like this tea but I also have a lot of tea to get through so I just don’t know
I’ve started frequently using flavoured matcha for tea soda. I dissolve about 1 tsp. of powder into an ounce of boiling water and use a full can of club soda to dilute it. Not totally relevant – but I know you like flavoured matcha, so just another thing to maybe keep in mind to try? I’m using eggnog matcha this way, and it’s actually really good!
Great choice! I’m going to restock too!

Roswell, that’s an amazing idea!
I just ordered more flavored matcha so perhaps I will give a try although all the flavors I got lend themselves to being mixed with milk really well
