Goji Pop

Advent Calender Day 14! I can’t believe we are at 10 days until Christmas, December is flying by as always.

I don’t know that I have ever logged this tea before, but it is a part of my collection at the moment. I really love it iced. It has a distinct tart flavour to it, that I find lends itself particularly well to Gin.

The colour is a nice pinky shade. I had it iced last night because I think that is the best way to drink it.

i drank this one ages ago and never reviewed it. i’m just not that in to the fruity herbal teas i guess. even if it’s scorching hot out and the ice cubes are tumbling.
i made a mason jar of this cold brewed a few weeks ago and it just sat in the fridge for a month until i decided i should just throw it out. I KNOW SO SAD! i’m sorry to all of you goji pop lovers out there for this horrible travesty. i’ll try again with more vigor soon.

I ordered this tea online a few months back, I just finished my 50g bag a couple of weeks ago. I have to say, this tea is amazing. It makes a delicious iced tea- i have tried it hot but didn’t fancy it much. This is not THE BEST fruity tea i have bought from Davids tea- and when I go back to a store this Wednesday to stock up I probably wont be repurchasing- but it is up there on the list. If you want a really yummy fruity iced tea- I would suggest Mango Madness instead of this, It may cost more but it tastes much better. It has a nice fruity flavor but is also very tart and not too sweet.
Also, I find that this tea tastes and smells the exact same as strawberry lemonade from Teavana.

The most wonderfully refreshing sweet tea.No overwhelming sweetness or tartness.Crisp and light and yet utterly fulfilling for my perpetual sweet tooth.Perfect hot or cold.Completely addictive.

Probably one of my favourite from Davids so far. I didn’t pick this one up when I first grabbed some of the Spring Collection. I have no idea why I passed over this one!

First off: the smell is phenomenal. I wish this came as a candle. The taste is tart, but juicy and refreshing. Sometimes I find that hot teas don’t quench my thirst, but this one definitely did. It was still tasty as it got colder. The only problem is (as others have pointed out) that I feel like I have to ration it out since there’s two tsp per cup. It is a little pricey, but I appreciate that I can just freely drink it.

I did a cold brew to see how it was iced. Three tsp in a big glass of water (16-ish oz) in the fridge for a couple of hours. A little weak, but lovely and refreshing.

I’ll definitely be restocking this in case it disappears when the Summer collection comes out!

Another sample that I got with my Davids Tea order. I was really excited to try this, but was a bit disappointed by it. It’s like the taste isn’t quite fruity enough. IMO, it would is not tart enough and needs more hibiscus. I preferred Pink Flamingo to this one. Prepared with stevia.

Very Nice. Light, and oh so fruity :) . and if you have yet to experience the joy of DAVIDsTEA – i dare you to….a little cup goes a loooong way…

This tea is quite tasty! Very fruity. This tea also has a nice aroma to it before and after it is steeped. I added a tsp. of honey to this and it was perfect.

I’m not sure want a goji berry is suppose to taste like but this tea is nice and fruity. Sweet, hint of citrus (lemon) and melon. It’s very tasty but isn’t really anything special.

So I have this tea too, I tried it first this summer. Day 14 on the calendar, I decided to brew it iced for a busy day at work. I brewed it hot in the morning and slipped it in the fridge when I got to work. I pulled it out in the afternoon and had a refreshing iced tea. I really like this one. It is also a pink tea… so much beautiful colour.

This is hands down my favourite iced herbal. I don’t love it hot, but that tends to be true of about 50% of teas I find, so don’t trust me too much lol. However, tonight I infused about 40g of Goji Pop into a 750ml bottle of vodka. (Using a steeper from a tea cup, I poured the vodka through the tea about 10 times, then stirred it right into the vodka when I still wasn’t happy with the flavour. I mixed it with lemonade and club soda over iced and it was amazing.

This one i cant place its Not bad but i don’t feel like it has a lot of flavor:( this made me sad, there is a sweet taste but that’s about it :(

This is one of my most favorite teas, and, considering how many I have tried and loved, says a lot.

Thank you lizeepea for the sample! :)

I’m not really feeling this one. After drinking both this tea and another fruity tea, I’ve come to find that herbal/fruity teas are just not my thing. I’d much rather settle down with a cup of plain white or green tea…or any other chocolate/pumpkin/sweet chai/oolong/rooibus tea.

This tea is probably much better to those who DO like herbal teas, but it’s just not for me.

Side note: When you’re done with the tea, let it go down your sink and into the garbage disposal – it will leave it smelling really clean and amazing! (That’s one thing I liked about it – the aroma is just wonderfully pleasant and bright)

An absolutely fabulous tea!
Sits perfectly as a treat, whenever you are in the mood.
It is very sweet, and has a sweet berry like smell.

Can’t say much more, its generally great.

ammmmmazing! smells like a fruit roll-up!
the taste is sweet and light with juuust a little hit of that tart hibiscus in the background, just enough to create a tangy fruit flavour.
i want to make little bags of potpourri with this dry tea and leave them all over my house it smells so good!

My bff introduced me to this tea, and boy am I ever glad she did. This is the perfect think-of-a-warm-summer-perfect-breeze-day tea. Sparkly and sweet in all the right ways, this tea brings a smile to my lips and literally puts a little song in my heart. And it helps me avoid some sweets sometimes… I’ll always have Goji Pop in my cupboard along with Read My Lips – they complement one another in an odd way, and life wouldn’t be complete if they were missing. I think I’ll only buy DAVIDsTea from now on…

This is so yummy! This is also excellent iced. Great in the summer.
I don’t add any sweetener to it.
Works excellentlly as a cold brew especially, and it is also just so pretty to watch everytime I open the fridge and see it steeping in there!
I really like the fruity taste.

When I first tried this tea, the girl at DT said that it wasn’t her favourite and it reminded her of a pink Starburst…and she was totally right! I think it’s delicious though, and can’t wait to try it iced as well.

It is so so so hard to rate this herbal, because it is in essence two teas:

The first is super bitter and too much and not at all pleasant. Rating = 10

The second is amazing and light and fruity and delicious! Rating = 85

What makes the difference? It is the equivalent drinking cheap perfume when it’s hot. Ice it, however, and you fall in love. It is like some supreme juice made of only the plumpest and juiciest and freshest of fruits. It is summer is a tall glass with slices of lemon. It is the basis of any good pitcher of sangria. And this coming from the gal who previously hated iced teas with a passion. Yum!

Only problem? This can become surprisingly expensive due to the large amount needed to make a good iced tea and how heavy this tea is. 60g of it allowed me to make 1 hot tea, one picher of sangria, and one pitcher of iced tea. Ouch.
