This feels like a bad breakup. “It’s not you, it’s me…”

Second tea for the night, and second time I just kind of cock my head to the side and go “hrmm… this… something not right…”

I think I’m going to stop this review here and assume I need some time to get my house in order, so to speak.

So, now that my tastebuds are well and truly back in order, Missy wanted me to give this another drink and see how I liked it.

The pear flavor still tastes very artificial and chemical, it has like a soapy taste to it. As the tea cools, this background soapy note also fades away. This could make a very, very tasty iced tea… but I would have a hard time recommending it hot. It’s just very off-putting.

Missy says it tastes great though. I could just be picky!

This tea smells much like it tastes.

Pear is the dominant flavor here. I like the cinnamon and clove together. I’m not sure what star anise tastes like but I think it may contribute to the sweetness. Although I notice they have stevia in here.

I like it. I wonder if will be good iced as well. Time will tell.
