Got a sample of this tea from a friend :)

It’s SO SALTY! :-O I just can’t get past it. However, I think the sweet flavor, if it is similar but not salty, would actually be very good! It’s super creamy and rich. I might try adding a little sugar, otherwise I won’t be able to finish this cup :P

My husband just tasted it and said “it’s not THAT bad” hahahaha

Stephanie

Now I added a little sugar…I think I can finish the cup now :)

They have unsalted version and then you can add salt to your taste.

Marzipan

You are braver than I am.

Cheri

Much braver than I am.

Stephanie

makes chicken noises at Cheri and Marzipan heehehe :)

Cheri

It just doesn’t sound good to me. I’m old enough and wise enough to just skip things that don’t interest me anymore.

Stephanie

Good call Cheri :)

Fjellrev

OMG, was it like drinking ramen?

Stephanie

LOL! Maybe it tasted like throwing a ramen seasoning packet in a cup of hot milk :P

Marzipan

High old lady five!

KiwiDelight

The fact that it’s instant makes it sound more scary O.O

AllanK

Is there actual “Yak Butter” in the tea?

Cwyn

I have this, bought it for a friend who wants to try it. Also bought a Xiaguan Tibetan Flame to make the real thing. Maybe I’ll just use the boxed stuff for yak butter flavoring and make the real tea.
