Lala drank STRAWBERRY ROSE CHAMPAGNE/PEACH TRANQUILITY TEA BLEND by Teavana

871 tasting notes

I never would have thought to try these two teas blended together. I saw Teavana offering this brewed in store, I had the tea at home so I thought I would give it a try.

I find the strawberry rose champagne is very artificial tasting on its own. When blended with the peach tranquility the artificial taste is less (but I also used less of the strawberry tea because I was mixing). The tea had a bit of a sweeter taste, which I attribute to the peach tea. You can still definitely taste the rose flavour. To me it tastes more like peach rose champagne tea. The peach is the more dominating of the flavours.

I think this makes and OK blend, but I probably wouldn’t make it too often.

Bio

I am a lifetime tea lover.

I did foray into the world of coffee for a period of time, but I returned to my true love. I still, however, enjoy a good cup of java.

My all time favorite tea is Earl Grey, which I drink every morning, the stronger the bergamot the better. I definitely prefer natural oil of bergamot to artificial flavouring.

I mostly like black and dark oolong teas. My current favs are Fujian blacks, Keemun and Assams, and Wuyi oolongs. I gravitate towards anything with lychee in it. I also drink a lot of herbal blends but am wary of hibiscus. I do not favour mate, or pu’erh tea, although I have found a few blends that I like. (I so badly want to like straight pu’erh tea but it all tastes gross to me. I keep trying though). Rooibos, green and white teas fall somewhere in the middle. I find myself gravitating towards heavily roasted oolongs and teas from Paris/France based companies.

I love iced teas and cold brews.

My current tea goal is to make the perfect cup of chai from scratch – almost there…I think.

I am in love with the whole experience of tea.
