The last of Bird & Blend’s summer collection. I left this one because I was sure it was the one I’d be least bothered about, but it’s actually really nice. It doesn’t sound exciting – chamomile, apple, rosehip, hibi, valerian, linden, orange peel – just like a run of the mill fruit/herbal blend. The scent is delicious, though, and really reminds me of something – I think maybe it’s Davids Tea Goji Pop, but I can’t remember that one quite clearly enough to say for certain.
The flavour is much, much better than I was expecting. It’s slightly sharp (rather reminiscent of pink grapefruit), slightly tart from the hibiscus, and creamy. It reminds me a little of cream soda, maybe one flavoured with rhubarb or something along those lines. I hesitate to say it’s fruity, but there is a background sour apple kind of thing going on. It’s delicious! I didn’t think I’d want to put this one in lemonade, but I think that’s the next thing I need to try; I have a feeling it might be a beautiful thing!
I love this one, rather unexpectedly. I might even buy more before the summer is over!
I passed over this one too because it seemed pretty basic, but this post has me changing my mind!
