drank Iced Tea with Lemon by Good Drink
139 tasting notes

I get this sometimes for lunch. I rarely every buy anything to drink for lunch because quite often I find it a waste of money (I’m quite happy to just have water or make tea when I’m back in the office), but sometimes I make an exception for this. It’s very yummy tasting: the black tea is paired with a balanced amout of lemon, and the best part is that it’s not overly sweetened. Very enjoyable!

Edit: Also, I’m a sucker for glass bottled drinks…

I did the math: if I buy a tea that’s $20/50g (an expensive tea!), get 15 “servings” of leaf out of it, and resteep the leaves 2x most times (so say, 40 cups of tea total for 50g ) that’s still only $0.50 a cup! And that’s expensive tea and using conservative numbers. For that reason I cannot justify going to places and buying 2-4$ drinks when I can use my high quality teas for a fraction of the cost.

It is nice buying a treat once in a while though! ;)

Bio

I joined Steepster Nov. 2/’15. I am an aspiring law student, currently studying for the LSAT. Meanwhile, I drink a lot of tea, work as a legal assistant and watch Netflix in my down time.

Ever since joining Steepster, I have tried a whole bunch new tea, met awesome people, and learned quite a lot! I am still expanding my tea horizons, currently working on exploring the oolong and puerh territories. Oolong has been a pleasant journey so far, while puerh is more rocky and uncertain. I shall keep trekking on!

My favourite teas are blacks and greens, both flavoured and unflavoured, and I have a few staples that I drink all the time.

I love to try teas that I would otherwise not have access to, and therefore I am always looking for people to trade samples with. Send me a message if you are interested!

My Wishlist is teas that I would like to restock (as a note to myself). My ratings are mostly arbitrary. Generally, anything above 90 I will likely restock. 70-80 I enjoyed, but will not go out of my way to get again. Anything below 70 was not that great, and the lower the mark the less I enjoyed it.
