Bamboozled

I’ll keep it short since I didn’t like this one overly much and never had the chance to try it iced. It tastes a bit like diluted pineapple water with additives instead of real sugar. I can taste and smell subtle vegetative bamboo but it’s not enough to make this herbal brew stand out. I’m not a huge fan of the softness of peach-flavoured beverages so that may have also been a factor. It is a nice “soft” fruity, light drink, especially as it cools down, but I was hoping for more personality. It needs something.

This tea was quite tasty. I drank it hot, and what I got a juicy refreshing brew with a bit ‘green’ flavour to it. It was light, a bit acidic without being too tart and juicy.

If I ever get my tea stash down (my cupboard is not reflective of what I have), and I’d purchase this one again, and give it a go as a cold brew.

I picked up 10g of this the other day to try iced.

Not my favourite. There is some peachy taste, but it smells like dishwater. Ugh. I definitely prefer the gingery bamboo tea I got from Zen Tea a while back.

They only had 12g left of this in the store (which I made my mom travel out of our way an extra 2 hours). I steeped this this morning & was suprised by the super light colour of it.
It was a little weak flavour wise, however I could definetly taste the mango/pineapple flavour. And although near the end of my mug it wasn’t very cold, as it went down my throat it felt like I was drinking it ice cold.

Sweet all the way through. Prominent pineapple flavour. Flavour reminds me of bubblegum. There is nothing particularly remarkable about the taste; simple flat pineapple.

This is a really interesting one. It’s mouth-watering. Quite literally. I guess that’s what they mean by “juicy?” It’s good though; tastes like peach and it has a slightly woody taste to it — reminds me of honeybush, in a way.

I’ve been stressing out a lot lately about some stuff at work. Today came a big answer as to what was going to happen and I’m very relieved.
I didn’t know what that answer would be until I got here today, but I thought I’d bring in a tea from home to enjoy as it would help the day go smoother until I heard the news. I chose my newest tea to the collection, Bamboozled!
Last summer I was given a whole bunch of Blazing Strawberries from a friend of mine and I loved it. The first two times or so times I had it, I didn’t really know what to think of it, but now I absolutely LOVE it. I think this tea will be the same.
I got only 50g of this last night as I was trying to be good. It has large pieces of fruit all through it with the bamboo leaves.
It is a nice fruity refreshing tea. I’m definitely enjoying it. I’d probably buy this one again as it is so fruity and nice.
The bamboo is a strange base, but I definitely like it as a change.

Tried this today, iced, as it’s actually a bit warm out here now. It was very refreshing and juicy. I think I’m gonna pick some of this up to take on my trip to Atlanta in a week and a half, along with some other teas that will be great iced. Actually, I’m thinking of taking the whole summer collection and the pre made bag of this with me to share with the group we will be with, though I might just get this a a few of the other teas, but not all.

It has a nice peachy color too. Not that that adds to the taste, but it is an aesthetic that I like.

I’ve decided I really like this one iced. It’s light, fruity, and unique because of the bamboo base. I always got it as a to go cup cold, and now I have some at home. I want to turn it into a cocktail somehow, but I need to figure out what would go with it.

Had this iced at the store today and it was delicious! I like this one more than Tropicalia. I should of bought a 50g but I went with Creme Caramel Rooibos (which they gave free samples of) instead. I really like the overall bamboo + pineapple combo, it was perfect on a hot day. I’d like DavidsTea to make more bamboo-based tisanes.

Reminds me of Green & Fruity, but I’ve never tried bamboo leaves before. We’ll see how this goes!

Hot: I wasn’t really a fan, like drinking warm fruitopia or something. So, I put the whole shebang in the fridge overnight and…

Cold: So, so, so much better! Taste-wise it reminds me a lot of Green & Fruity, but cooler somehow. I can see what they mean about bamboo leaves being “cooling” because it somehow just feels like drinking liquid cold (and I didn’t even add any ice to it). Definitely a refreshing summertime beverage full of light, tropical flavour. Drink up!

After tragedy(tea disappointment)I need a win.

So I went with this peachy pineapple lovely smelling brew with an awesome name and the mention of PANDAS. what’s not to love..

put huge amount in and steeped full time recommended.

Smells like awesome hot juice..apple juice..pineapple and peach juice…every smell of it makes another note more and more apparent..the cruise of smells.I actually want to eat the steeped leaves…I just might…………..

waiting for tea to cool is hellish sometimes…COOL DOWN DAMMIT!!

My reviewing gets a little hyper at night..I see this now.

Finally ready to drink..so excited..

So,first taste judgment:
Oh my…best juice ever..rich with so many awesome flavors dancing on my tongue..yummy yummy yummy…NEEDS to be tried iced.
THIS is what I wanted Swampwater to taste like..

YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

another tea run! picked up 12 new ones, so after a marathon steeping i’ve got six of the lower caffeine teas ready to go, so i’ll be keeping them short and sweet. GET SET…!

mmm, bambooo
this one is definitely fruity. very sweet also. the pineapple is prominent with a peachy undertone to balance it out. will have to try it iced!
it’s good but i don’t love it.

I adore this iced. It’s super refreshing with fantastic fruity notes. It’s definitely worth a try!

I tried this at the shop in Grant Mall this morning. It was served cool. I liked it the peach was stronger than the pineapple. It looked like water though and would’ve tasted better if I made it at home with my filtered water.

This was another tiny packet of tea I recieved with a bunch of teawares I had bought. I was really apprehensive on it since I am very much not a fan of pineapples and such but I gave it a try to mark down another tea sipped.

I found it to be very tasty! The aroma was alluring to say the least and I had fun enjoying it, not finding a harsh amount of pineapple to the tea at all! Although I did enjoy it, I wouldn’t buy an entire tin of it. It is lovely and was fun to have but I may leave it at that unless a friend wanted to split a tin buy on it.

how have i not fallen in love with this tea already?!?!?! i was really really hot at work yesterday so i made an iced bamboozled. (bamboo is cooling, and pineapple reduces inflamation) perfect. i’ve drank a litre and a half of this over the last two days.

Backlog review.

Love this. I’ve been waiting for another bamboo tea since blazing strawberries, and was so excited when this was released. Fantastic in a glass! Or a mug. Perfect iced, and also really good hot. I drank a lot of this over the summer – generally cold steeped. I find that you can’t really oversteep this at all – I’d keep a juice pitcher of this with the tea filter in, for a day or two and it was always super tasty. The fruity notes are balanced and don’t overpower the bamboo, the bamboo is wonderfully fresh. Just fantastic.

I like this one! I wasn’t sure how I’d feel given that my luck with bamboo teas (aside from the Bamboo Lychee Sencha I had found locally). This one is nice. There’s more fruitiness than bamboo, which I prefer.

Its so awesome!

One of the greatest iced teas from DAVIDs TEA!!

The taste- Very, Very similar to Mango Madness ( also from DAVIDs)
Very refreshing and cooling

The color- light yellow- white

Smell- light, refreshing- like mango madness

very fruity!!!!
My fav iced tea at the moment—— and only tea rated 100 on my account! :)
