Plum Deluxe Hanukkah Sampler (caffeinated) – Day 7

Playing the “how did this tea get its name game” with today’s blend: Menorah Bright. My theory is that it’s because the blend has nine ingredients (not counting the base teas and natural flavor), corresponding to the nine candles on a menorah. This is very fruit-heavy, so I thought it’d be good iced and did an overnight cold brew. The overall impression here is “fruit punch.” Apple, orange, lemon, mango, and a hint of strawberry come through at various points in the sip. I really expected this to be too muddled given how many different fruits are in it, but it’s surprisingly not at all. More like the flavors take turns. I can see this being really refreshing on a hot day!
