I used 1 tablespoon of dry leaf for 375 ml of water.
There’s a bitter earthiness in the flavour. I am detecting lime flavour with marshmallow sweetness. The tanginess of the pineapple is present.
There is a cloying stevia-like sweetness in the middle of the sip.
As the tea is allowed to cool, I’m starting to taste the roasted flavour from the green tea.
Lingering aftertaste is a very authentic lime jello flavour.
As the tea cools further, the roasted green tea is becoming present in the aroma and balancing nicely with the lime jello scent. The cloying sweetness is faded.
I may have have infused this tea for too long. I should maybe try to infuse closer to 2 minutes next time.
