On the 18th day of sipdowns..

Okay. I got this today from a promotion Yogi was doing so they sent me two teabags, this and their Spiced Dandelion Detox so it only really half counts as a sipdown because I only had one teabag as it is.
I didn’t actually read the package so it was a surprise when I pulled out the teabag and it was a black tea (I expected an Herbal) but it could work.

My first impression was…soapy. I can’t taste much of the raspberry flavor but there is a bite of ginger towards the end of the sip. It could possibly be flavored with raspberry leaf, which I can’t identify as well. I taste a little bit of peppermint and overall it tastes like herbs – something I’ve come to expect from Yogi and part of why I tend to steer clear.

Overall, I won’t be buying this, but if I’m not feeling well and need a pick me up tea, this could fit the bill.

Edit:
I just read the ingredients and was interested to see that theres pu’erh in this tea. I didn’t taste it and don’t usually care for pu’erh so this gives me hope that maybe sometime I’ll find a pu’erh I like :P

Flavors: Ginger, Herbaceous, Medicinal, Peppermint, Soap

Bio

I got into loose leaf teas about three years back when I figured I might be a little too old for Celestial Seasoning’s Zinger Teas. Ever since, I’ve been sneaking out of the house to find obscure hole in the wall tea shops to get my fix and swapping teas as I go.
Lately, I’ve been into herbals and rooibos, but I do enjoy black tea, specifically ceylons. I mainly drink flavored teas.

Currently Looking For:
Caramel flavored teas
Cherry herbals
