I had ordered this from Praise Tea a while ago. When my order arrived, there was a note on the invoice that said it was out of stock. I didn’t mind at all; there was a lovely sample of peach tea in its place.
Today, when I finally braved the rain to check my mailbox, I had a package from Praise Tea. I had no idea what was going on…until I opened it. There was the sample of this I had ordered, and 3 other complimentary samples. I was shocked and very excited, to say the least. I’m definitely going to be a repeat customer.
Especially since this really, really does taste like a cabernet. It’s lighter than a real wine, of course, and I can still taste the rooibos and the flowers, but the cabernet comes to the fore and is fantastic. I totally did not follow the steeping directions, and brewed for 5 min (the package recommends 2-3 min). I think I’ll need to take some of this to work, so I can pretend I’m having a glass of wine when I’m having a bad day.
Champagne this morning, cabernet this evening…Praise Tea, are you turning me into a tea wino? ;-)
LOL – at least you will be tea wino, with all the health benefits of tea and no side effect: hangover!
