Thanks Cameron for sending me this to try! I’ve been saving it for New Years.
The dry sachet of this smells strongly of grape Hi-Chews deliciousness!
Steeped the tea definitely has a grape Hi-Chew like flavor as well as some floral perfume like notes. I get the champagne as well it has an almost bubbly like quality to it though leaning more towards champagne than soda. I probably steeped it a tad long and would steep it a bit shorter next time.I bet this would be delicious iced as well. This is my first grape tea I’ve tried from Lupicia and I definitely would repurchase this and want to try their other grape teas as well.

Happy New Year’s Eve , We had a lot of leftover baking ingredients from Christmas so I ended up making this Magnolia Bakery Copycat Banana Pudding recipe and the family loved it.
Lately I’ve been trying to drink up older teas or things I don’t normally reach for. This is one of those teas It was a gift from my grandparents that they brought back from a trip to Europe. I made a small pot of this to drink today and revisit.
I mainly get the taste of the green tea base from this tea and given the quality of it actually I believe I should try making this tea cold next time. The mango and sea buckthorn berries provide a slightly floral mango medicinal note to the tea. I have a big bag of this to go through so cold brewing it might be the best way to use it up.

Flavors: Astringent, Bitter, Drying, Floral, Mango, Metallic, Vegetal

Just bought a box of this today and made a cup. For some reason it’s tasting very peachy. The aftertaste is like those gummy peach candies. Hmm Still a yummy herbal bagged tea though but now I want some candy.

Youngest brought me some of this to try Christmas Eve! I thought it was good but I don’t remember getting a peach vibe. I need to try another cup tonight and pay closer attention.

I have never had gummy peach candies, but I just made a whole pot of this and I can “get” the peach vibe. Youngest says she noticed it, and my husband says he can definitely consider it fruity.

I’ve had this one so many times growing up and never got a peach vibe until last nights box. I found one note from someone else on Steepster around 8 years ago who got the same peach vibe haha. I was very confused with the peachy aftertaste that lingered.

Gummy Peach candies are delicious! We found them at the local gas station growing up.

Peachy-Os are top tier candies.

I drink tea for many reasons: For pleasure, health benefits, mindfulness, to help with anxiety, hydration because I have always struggled with drinking plain water.
My rating system is kind of a mess and I keep telling myself I’ll fix it sometime.

0-23 Rating Means I couldn’t finish the cup
50- Undecided on a rating or don’t remember enough about it to rate the tea.
