Sweet Desert Delight (aka Desert Blend) from Zhi Tea

This is so sweet it’s distracting. I may have oversteeped so this rating will change, I am sure. I like the idea of this…but I could have very well be at fault

You say, “I may have oversteeped it” a lot. Is it that you start with a certain amount of time and it’s frequently too long? Or is it that you set up the tea and then get distracted? (“Pretty, shiny thing over there…”) Or is it that you follow the company’s directions but they give a steeping time that’s too long. (That happens to me a lot.)

I ask because I’m deeply curious whether other people start with short steep times or long ones. My tendency is usually to go too long rather than too short.

Well, I do like a stronger tea most of the time so sometimes I oversteep on purpose. Other times I get distracted – if I am at work or forget about it in my IngenuTEA, etc… Sometimes I put too much of the loose leaf in to begin with LOL – it’s all over the place really…you never know with me! LOL

Yes, I usually go with the longer times as well!
