From Michelle! Thanks so much! An apricot tea on a black base with some matching colored (to apricot) safflower petals. And the apricot flavoring is not lacking — plenty of it here, and then some of that apricot left over in the second steep! It’s a bit of a candy flavored apricot. The base tea seems to really just be a background for the flavors, a little bit of a thin black tea. However, I didn’t see any actual fruit chunks in my sample like the photo shows, so maybe it would have made it even more apricot delicious? But if you’re craving apricot, this suits. Pretty straightforward here.
Steep #1 // 1 heaping teaspoon for a full mug // 22 minutes after boiling // 2 minute steep
Steep #2 // just boiled // 3 minute steep

This is a comforting sweet tea I reach for when I don’t feel like a straight black. Go for three steeps!

Well it seems I am waaaay behind on reading tea notes, so I have some catching up to do! I succumbed to Maya’s 25% off iced teas to place an order of this Apricot tea as it steeps 3 times and my original bag was getting low. The tea smells wonderful and tastes like apricot with a slight bitter edge, but its one of the flavored teas that I enjoy so I ‘needed’ more. As if I need more tea!
