Another tasty fruit tea!! What is happening to me… two months ago, I despised all fruit tisanes!
When I first took a sip it was very mild and watery. But then I added some honey and it all came together for me. I got alot of different flavours here, but there are so many of them that I can’t quite identify them all.
Of course, I could definitely get at the zesty ginger, which played with the pepper a bit. I’ve noticed that tea vendors use those alot together when they want the tea to “pop”. It also seems to tone down the ginger a tad, making it more approachable. i suspect that it was candied ginger too. I like the trend :)
As for the other ingredients, well the tea had a certain tropical air to it… and I think I found the papaya in there, or was that the fig?? hmmm. I need to try it again. With a longer steep time as well. I don’t think the three minutes they use are nearly long enough! who knows, maybe that would have bumped it way up on the rating scale, for me.
