Midsummer Night's Dream

This tea I brewed up in the afternoon of my first dayshift. I needed a herbal tea to calm me down after working so hard and this one hit the spot well.

It is not a bad tea, I found. It is actually quite better than a lot of herbal teas I have been trying but it is very heavy with lemon which means it needed honey just to even it out to a smooth cup. I would definitely drink this again but… maybe not a lot of it. A tin buy is plausible but it would last me as long time.

One of the first teas I ever tried at DT and I fell in love. The name is great and the tea is even greater. I am VERY picky with herbal teas and this is my favourite!

Mmmmm. This is really tangy and tart, but I can taste the spearmint too, which is really lovely. I really like this now. But it’s a pretty heavy tea, so I think I’ll get 3 cups out of this half ounce bag :(
I let it steep for a while because I liked it really fruity. Also, it turns bright yellow. Always a plus when your tea turns cool colors.

This is a very nice tea. It has a great fruit flavour with the refreshing undertones of mint. A thoroughly enjoyable combination of flavours and indeed perfect for a midsummer’s night.

I used 2 scoops for my thermos.

Sweet, orange-flavoured and minty all the way through. The sweetness seems to be sourced from the spearmint. This is a very nice blend.

The second infusion is slightly dilute but drinkable. This tisane would not likely do well past its second infusion.

This is one tisane to keep infused while drinking- over time, the spearmint flavour comes out and really sweetens the tisane.

First time I tried this I was absolutely in love. It was one of my first David’s teas and I loved it, but as I started trying more and more of their teas I liked it less in comparison. I am excited to try it iced!

Another caffeine-free hit! Fabulous! Absolutely love the tangy orange/grapefruity scent of the dry tea, and when steeped, it has a light citrusy, creamy/buttery almost vanilla flavour (although sadly, the delicious scent is muted a bit). However, I’m not getting “orange creamsicle” from it like I do moreso from Orange Blossom; it reminds me more of an orange butterscotch Higgins & Burke tea I was given for Christmas a few years back. The one thing I’m a bit disappointed about is that I can’t taste the spearmint at all.

Definitely re-buying. Love that I’m having so much luck with tea purchases lately!

I simply love this tea – the smell is amazing and it tastes just as great. I suggest to add a little bit of sweetener to it to balance the tangy-ness of it. Makes a great iced tea as well :)

I don’t really get the floral notes so much in this one, and I don’t really like it hot…..but cold….that is a different story. The flavours really fust nicely together when cold.
Now that it is permanent, I will certainly be getting more during the summer!

I asked my oldest daughter to prepare my Timolino travel mug with some dry tea, so I could steep some tea at work. Her choice for me today was this tea! I love the light citrus/floral taste of Midsummer Night! Sitting up here in my little isolation chamber trying to keep warm… This tea is definitely hitting the spot :)

One thing that I really like about this tea? It still tastes great after steeping for over 1hr ;)

Smells like grapefruit!
Really good cold OR hot with a little bit of agave but it doesn’t really need it.

I’m so glad this is permanent now! I first ordered this one in late August; I wish I had discovered it sooner!

Had a cup of this last night before going to bed. I found it very similar to pink flamingo but more sweet. I find with Pink flamingo i have to add honey as it is so tart but not the case with this tea. I think this will make an excellent iced tea.

At first I wasn’t too sure how the orange and mint would cooperate, but it was actually quite nice. Refreshing, and I’m hoping I can try it iced soon.

Another tea that smelled a lot better than it tasted.

“Citrus and mint and flowers. Very pleasant. Good hot, better iced. Refreshing and unusual.” So say my initial notes on this one. I stand by my assertion of its deliciousness. Unfortunately, I’ve noticed this one gives me heartburn, because I’m an old lady and I’m prone to such things. I can only assume it’s the gooseberries. Alas.

Pretty good, not a big fan of mint, very suttle hint of mint but enough for me not to drink again :(

My absolute favourite. <3

I’m not sure how I feel about this one – there’s a strange taste in there.

It was a tester i had received from Davids Tea when I ordered so I thought I would try it seeing as i had only purchased black teas this order. When I first opened the tester it had a grapefruit smell to it. Which made me worry that i had a mislabeled tester but i went forth and steeped it and it was pretty good but I think it would have been better iced!
