Lala drank Pineberry Honeybush by 52teas

871 tasting notes

I think this one is almost better iced than it is hot. I made this one as I normally would hot, but used a bit less water, then added ice.

It is a thick liquor. There are pineapple and strawberry flavours. The flavours are not really tart and not too sweet, a little blunted, but somehow it works really well. Even though it is not too sweet, there is still a very light sweetness to it. I anticipated this to be more juice-like but is more iced tea-like. I only minimally taste the honeybush.

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.
