drank Mango black tea by Caribou Coffee
268 tasting notes

There is a Caribou coffee in a building adjacent to the building I work in which I almost never go to. I had this today as a tea latte, because if I’m going to pay $2+ for a cup of tea, I’m going to at least make them steam some milk for me hehe. This was actually kinda good. The mango was bright and juicy tasting, although the black base was forgettable. The milk added a creaminess and it was much better than I’m used to getting at coffee shops.
I miss my kettle at work. I miss my work teas.

Flavors: Mango

Good point on the mark-up of brewed tea. lol

I have a coworker that gets a black tea from starbucks every morning. I can’t believe he pays for that! What happened to your kettle at work? :/

Right? And Starbucks tea is not good. Although I have found that a sprinkle of nutmeg makes an “awake” black tea latte much more tolerable.
The kettle was left in the common area for anyone to use. Someone broke it, put a red piece of tape tape on it that said “broken” and then hid it behind a bunch of stuff in the back of a cabinet for me to find. I have to say that some of my coworkers do not have the strongest social skills

Ugh that’s frustrating! I definitely have some coworkers like that too.

I have liked several of the tea lattes I’ve had from Caribou. I’m not sure about all of their teas but I am pretty positive that at least the cinnamon spice is a relabeled Harney. :) Soon it will be time for their pumpkin spice tea latte – which is fantastic, if not very tea-y. :)

Bio

Tea-obsessed, book worm scientist.

I love black tea, especially Chinese black tea- I’m looking at you Fujians and Yunnans! I also enjoy Indian teas, mostly first flush darjeelings (and a select few assams).
I think I’m recently starting to like oolongs better though- gasp! I’ve been cheating on my black teas with all these lovely, alluring green floral oolongs. Sorry I’m not sorry.
White tea gets a lot of love too! I am particularly fond of silver needle whites.
I can’t seem to appreciate green teas and rooibos is foul, IMO.

Other interests: Books! Board games! Nerdy entertainment like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Sherlock, all the nature documentaries, etc etc. Also Disney!

I’m up for swaps!
