Such a busy week! My friend came in from out of town so I had no time to drink tea :( He left last night, so this morning I decided to brew myself a cup of this, which I picked up downtown while we were down there. I really enjoy hibiscus (unlike some people, haha), so I was excited to try this.
I steeped at boiling (using my new PerfectTemp kettle! Yay!) for about 2 to 3 minutes.
First sip:
Such a rich color! Wow :p Hm, I don’t really taste hibiscus in this? I am not sure. I may have underbrewed it, but I didn’t want too bitter of a flavor. It is very light but also very good.
Finishing off the cup:
I really should have put some honey in here. My throat kills. I am just getting over a sore throat :(. It was a good cup, I may have to steep a tad bit longer or put in more leaves. I enjoyed this because it was very easy to drink. By this I mean that I was able to drink a lot at once. Some teas require me to take one sip at a time, but with this I could drink it like I would a bottle of water. I hope that makes sense haha.

Overall, I enjoyed this tea. Next time I’ll steep just a little bit longer and add some more leaves. It was easy to drink and would be a good tea for when I don’t want a strong flavor. I’ll be reaching for this one in the future for sure.
