This. This. is. good. Thank you Roswell Strange for sharing this with me because it is AWESOME!!

First off, it smelled amazing which actually made me nervous because I feared the taste would not deliver. I am happy to report that it does!! This is a super refreshing cup of melon and vanilla, unlike any I have had before. I would stock this in a heartbeat.

I guess between this and Apple Strudel Pistachio, there is a Cuppa’T order in my future. My NEAR future.

Can you order from them? I couldn’t figure out how. I may have to drive there haha.

I think it is a mail in thing. Look at the bottom of the page: http://www.cuppatteas.com/

Also, in theory, you could be very nice to Lala and tigress_al and see if either would pick anything up for you and ship it to you – because they actually live in the city the store is in. Also, I would be willing to do the same when I’m in town visiting family. But yes; out of the Cuppa’T blends I’ve tried both this and Apple Strudel Pistachio are my favourites; and things I WILL be restocking. I just knew you’d love this one too though :)

OMGsrsly

Oh hey! They have a Lime Sage rooibos as well. Might be a better place to order from in the future, depending on shipping costs.

BUDDHA BAMBOO!! Damn my list of orders keeps growing!

VariaTEA

Also, this isn’t on their site :(

Roswell Strange

Yeah; it was new when I went up in January. Which is sad, because I’d really like an ingredients list.

tigress_al

Yep, I could probably do that for you ladies!

VariaTEA

OOoohhh YAY!! Thank you!! I would of course pay for the teas and the shipping and what not. I just need to have more of this tea!! This and Apple Strudel Pistachio rooibos :)

My cupboard has grown exponentially since joining this site and I have a lot to share. Feel free to snoop through my cupboard and message me if anything interests you – I am always happy to swap!

For me, flavored teas are definitely my sweet spot. I will most often reach for black teas and rooibos or honeybush blends but I do keep some flavored whites and greens around for when the mood strikes. I have a few herbals/tisanes but most of the time I find myself disappointed by them as they often smell deliciously sweet and then end up tasting tart/sour. I have a little bit of an aversion to pu’erh and oolong teas. I am also wary of florals, earl greys, and chai teas. I do not like overpowering citrus flavors nor do I usually like hibiscus, licorice or chamomile. I love dessert teas – caramel, vanilla, toffee, cookie, cream, and other sweet flavors make me smile. Fruits like strawberry, peach, mango, and pineapples will often catch my attention as well.

I have also realized that although I really enjoy adding frothed milk to some of my teas, if I do not like the tea with zero additives (just in plain water without milk or sugar), I probably won’t drink it. The one exception is flavored matchas which I will happily drink in cold milk if I do not like it mixed with hot water. My theory is if the tea can’t stand on its own then it is not for me and I will more than likely try to swap it out for something else.

Tea Ratings Guide (as of December 10, 2017)
90-100 Teas I NEED on hand at all times
80-89 Teas I want to keep around for a cup every now and then
70-79 Teas I am glad I have around and can experiment with but probably don’t need more than what’s in my cupboard
60-69 Teas I would not turn down a cup of from a friend but that would probably be enough
50-59 Teas I can see why someone would enjoy but are not for me
Under 50 Teas I really did not like and most likely got dumped
