Thank you CHAroma for this tea and for swapping! I though today was going to be more productive today but I spent almost 2 hours at the gym and then had to take a nap after lunch because I was so tired out from all the exercise ;)
So anyway after waking up from my nap it seems like a cup of tea is on order. The dry leaf smells so much like I recall Boo-Berry tasting, of course it has been years but yes it smells like a blueberry flavored cereal. As for the flavor, I am definitely getting both the blueberry and marshmallow, but I felt like the black tea base got kind of bitter. I used boiling water and steeped for around 3 minutes and also used a pretty big sample for a large mug of tea. Anyhoo, I liked this better after adding soymilk and a little coconut sugar which helped cut down on the bitterness a bit. Not my favorite thing from 52 yeas but I am enjoying the blueberry flavor.

It is really old so that may have contributed to the bitterness. Wow, 2 hours in the gym?! Those days are past for me! I’m lucky to get 30-45 minutes in now. You go girl!
CHAroma- that is really rare for me but I want to start doing longer hikes and am trying to build up my stamina.
That’s awesome! I’m concentrating on speed right now. I’m pretty out of shape after giving birth to my daughter 6 months ago, so I can only run about a 12 minute mile. I’m trying to run faster each day till I’m under 10 minutes. I’m basically doing intervals to push myself a little faster. It’s hard but worth it, right? That’s what I tell myself anyway. :)
