Another sample from Tealux. This seems like it would be a good one: lime, coconut, apple.. but I didn’t find much flavor after steeping for four minutes so I went for six minutes. Maybe I should have had more than a teaspoon of tea? This will probably only be steeped once, and I almost always go for multiple steeps. I don’t think I like green rooibos as much as red rooibos. It seems more sour somehow… and the red rooibos seems more woodsier. The coconut here seems to be the kind I don’t like. Not my favorite from Tealux. It reminds me of one of my favorites — Mojito from Element Tea (sadly out of business… if I knew how great that blend was, I would have bought more!) but the Tealux blend doesn’t even compare to the delicious Element blend.
Coconut Lime Verbena
Refreshing and uplifting, this island inspired rooibos infusion is an exotic medley of creamy young coconuts enlivened by the zesty vivaciousness of fresh lemon verbena and the aromatic essence of sweet limes. Enjoy this invigorating infusion over ice or as a mid-afternoon lift to your day.
