Sooooooo glad to have this in the cupboard again. Even hot, it is the quintessential summertime tea (though yes, icing it makes it even more so). I constantly have to remind myself, though, that David’s is serious about that 3-4 minute recommended steep time. Less time and you won’t taste anything; more time and, oddly, you also won’t taste anything. Or at least not much. Somehow the flavors get dulled with extra time. Also, the color is nothing to go on. This is an extremely light-colored tea. But if you get it just right there is sparkly lime and smooth yogurt and some peppy apple flavor, and it is amazing.

Not Really My Style:
spices (except for ginger. ginger rocks)
chai (because, you know, the spices)
rooibos (I don’t get it. Everyone seems psyched for it. Not me).
those smoky teas, like lapsang souchong, though once in a while I’ll need something really strong and then I like them.
