Oh wow… seeing the description of this tea and tasting it…. it’s EXACTLY the tea I was dreaming and hoping it is! It’s just so…. jammy! Exactly the jammy flavor I wanted in this brew, which is odd because I can’t recall this flavor being in any other Bluebird teas I’ve tried. It really does seem like strawberry jam/jelly and ice cream to me (which isn’t really an American thing, but it sounds divine.) It doesn’t just taste like strawberry like any other strawberry tea though… it’s JAM. There is slight creaminess from the coconut. The hibiscus I was worried about doesn’t really make an appearance in the flavor, unless the tartness gets buried in all the jam. I’m so glad. Very happy with this tea! It’s a cup full of strawberry jam with a dab of vanilla ice cream. Bluebird wins again! Sadly, it isn’t available on the site right now. (I ordered a few teas from Bluebird because I knew most of the teas I’d be ordering would go missing for a while… or for good?)
Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoons for a full mug// couple minutes after boiling // 3 minute steep
