drank Champagne Mojito Green by 52teas
328 tasting notes
After sampling 52 teas Shamrock teas (which became my favorite mint tea ever), this tea’s mild mint flavor was a personal disapoinment.

But this is no reflection of 52teas quality, as how did they get a tea to mimic champage? Upon removing the filter after steeping, I think I actually saw champagne bubbles. This tea does magically capture the “dryness” of champane.. but for me, I am not a champagne fan. Shoot, the only champagne my sweet tooth likes is some bargain brand (Verdi?) sold at the corner CVS…

I did not detect any lime notes even after cooling…

Ah, Verdi Spumante! It’s cheap but yummy (I have a sweet tooth too!). I actually served it at my wedding. A coworker did at hers first, and I liked it so much I copied the idea. Besides, dry champagne tastes bad with sweet wedding cake… I read that somewhere.

Just a few months ago the only tea I drank was hot lipton tea at work, an occasional mint tea, and sweet iced tea.. Then my daughter got me some loose leaf teas for Christmas and then, my tea addiction began…..

And what better way to get lots of dessert flavors w/o the calories?

I prefer my tea with a tinge of sugar. Is that cheating? But to me , the combination of sugar and tea is like salt and cooking- both bring out the natural flavors.

My tea drinking has evolved into a set routine: a breakfast blend in the AM, some flavored blacks during the day, late afternoon or evening flavored green/white, herbal (usually spicy, chai inspired) at night.

Not into unflavored greens/whites yet. Just started appreciating unflavored blacks and am thinking that smoky teas may become my favorite…
When I am not drinking tea, I am working as an engineer, reading, watching some of the better TV shows (like Damages and Breaking Bad), practicing my yoga, cooking, gardening, and spoiling my two miniature poodles (Coco and Timmy)…
