From Adagio Custom Blends, Amy Zen

Berry and lemongrass mix with rooibos, creating a bright, fruity flavour. Hard to oversteep and make bitter, this blend is quite forgiving and great when you need something that isn’t caffeinated.

Inspired by Joss Whedon’s Firefly.

Created by: Amy Zen

Ingredients: lemon grass, rooibos tea, hibiscus flowers, rose hips, apple pieces, natural blueberry flavor, marigold flowers, blueberries, natural lemon flavor, natural vanilla flavor, lemon balm & aniseed spice

Steeping Instructions: Steep at 212° for 5 minutes.

VariaTEA

Whaaaat weird.
This is the last of my Firefly teas from Cavocorax via Variatea, and I saved this one for last because I fully expected to hate it, on account of it’s rooibos.

I’m pleasantly surprised that I don’t really taste the rooibos in this one! I actually taste the lemongrass, apple and blueberry, with a tartness that I presume comes from the hibiscus. And isn’t entirely delicious, that part.

Sooo yeah! Not terrible! Which is high praise coming from me, as far as rooibos goes.
Thanks ladies, for sharing!

I sadly have to say that I finished watching Firefly the other day, sadness. I plan to watch Serenity with the hubby this week, so at least there’s that to look forward to.

I’m ashamed that it took me this long to watch it, the huge Joss Whedon fan that I am. It was way less juvenile and cartoony than I expected (based on Buffy and Angel, which I loved loved loved)…. I totally see why people were pissed when it was cancelled. So sad.

Now I’m up to my eyeballs in season 2 of Orange is the New Black season 2….. SO MUCH AWESOME.

Flavors: Apple, Blueberry, Lemongrass

Last sipdown for today! That’s all the firefly teas!
:D

I think I over-steeped this by 10 minutes but it’s totally forgiving. I’m tasting licorice, and orange and lemongrass and it’s really calming. So relaxing. Time for bed.

Dammit. I could possibly buy some of this too. Guys – this person REALLY knows how to blend tea!

ETA There’s no actual licorice in this so maybe it’s the blueberries steeped to the max that I’m tasting?

ETalsoA I’m at 200 teas!!! Bahahah

Sil

are not! lol my house says otherwise…

TeaLady441

Those don’t count (la la la) and the longer I postpone picking them up, the more time I have to sip these ones down?

Sil

…the longer i have to add more…

So this tea looks like a chiffon tea with the added flavors of apple and rose hips. However it is not a combination I am loving. The lemongrass contributes a sort of tropical element while the apple comes through as a sweetness that is out of place in the cup. Moreover, the combination comes off as artificial and is almost reminiscent of licorice. I will try this again but as of now, it is just not for me.

Ah, Firefly!

VariaTEA

Yep! I was able to snag one of the sampler packs during their sale which made me very, very happy.

Autistic Goblin

Shepherd Book wasn’t for everyone either so why would his tea be? Long live Firefly!!

VariaTEA

Very true. I suppose the tea could be representative of him but it was not me.

VariaTEA

*Not for me
