Iced!

I really, really wish that Whittard had offered their instant teas in some kind of sample pack (maybe in stick pack format) because they all sounded really good and I would have really liked to have taste them all. As it is, they were only sold individually in these large tubes that were pretty heavy. So, we just picked one flavour to bring back with us…

I thought this was interesting because it was sort of exactly what I expected but also so different!? Obviously it’s sweet. I knew to expect that after sampling some of the other flavours in store. However, compared to the in store samples it was much less intense than I’d expected. As a powder you can obviously easily control the intensity by using more or less powder/water, but following tin instructions I’d just expected a more sugary cup than I actually got.

I knew the rose would be milder than the lychee because rose is just so much more of a polarizing flavour, and that was true. I’d call this a juicy, fresh and lychee forward drink. However, the rose wasn’t actually as muted as I’d expected and it was a VERY lush, fresh, and natural tasting rose than leaned in so perfectly with the supple notes of the lychee too. Really balanced, but distinctly floral in a way I think would appeal to even people who typically don’t tend to like rosy flavours. It was just very refreshing and accessible feeling!

…and bonus points for whisking up a sort of dusty rose/blush pink kind of colour.

I got some of that one and the Ice Wine mix. I was addicted to that stuff while in the UK.
