drank Cantaloupe Ice by DAVIDsTEA

So i tried this one hot and cold. Hot it’s nothing to write home about and can be forgotten. Iced, this is actually a pretty tasty treat, though a little less canteloup-ey than when it’s brewed hot. Cold, though, the blend is just better. If DT wasn’t so epxpensive these days, i’d consider some for summer brewing..especially since i think it’s going to be a hot one!

Oh, sounds worthwhile trying.

Another from crowkettle. This is a tasty one as well – creamy, vanilla, butter, smooth, delicious. Notes of coconut…slight grassy flavour but overall just tasty. I almost get a hint of cinnamon but not quite. glad to be able to have this again.

Noms. This was a delicious afternoon treat courtesy of Crowkettle I can honestly say that i’d almost be willing to keep this in my cupboard – which says a lot. I have a bit more, but this was just a tsty cup, even when it had cooled on me while work got in the way.

drink drink drink. Still loving this one though with the increase in prices at David’s tea, not likely going to be purchasing things there even as seldom as i do.

Yeah, I feel the same way because of the prices and the poor tea blending and marketing decisions over the past year.

drank Purple Mint by JusTea

Sample from Justea (i don’t know why i keep writing it with two t’s). I’ve been a slacker in getting a review out for this one, mostly because i need to be in the mood for mint. Mint isn’t really something i just drink a lot of and this is a MINT tea. peppermint and spearmint makes for a lot of mint. It works though. What doesn’t really work for me is the addition of the rose petals – though thankfully they’re not overpowering. I want to play with this one again, but this is a night evening cup of tea for me when the night is a little cooler. I like being able to sit out and inhale the mint.

Thanks for the sample Justea! I wouldn’t have picked this one out myself but it’s good when you want a little mint in your life ;)

You know, I really enjoy a good mint julep. I don’t drink them often but when I find a good mint tea, I enjoy it almost as much.

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling as well!

Most of that is on hold these days though, including tea drinking like I used to as I have a new little one who eats up all my spare time.
