Think Pink

When life gives you lemons, reach for this zippy hot pink blend. One sip is enough to turn any frown upside down. Not only is it packed with rooibos, hibiscus and other good-for-you stuff, it’s also unbelievably delicious any way you drink it. Served hot, it’s a tart and tasty throat soother. On ice, it’s an addictively tangy summer refresher. And if you really want to take it to the next level, freeze it into ice cubes and blend them up with some agave and a splash of vodka. Hello, grown-up slushie.

Ingredients: Hibiscus, mango, rooibos, lemon peel, lemon myrtle, lemongrass, stevia, cornflower petals, natural and artificial lime, lemon and sugar cane flavouring.

I tried a sample of this in store and found it way too sweet. Nonetheless, the beau talked me into picking up 50 grams. We made it hot last night (I still don’t really like iced tea) and it was, once again, way too sweet. Davids, you need to cut back on coconut and stevia. Like now. The beau enjoyed it (though he preferred it cooled) but I would be happier to never taste that much sweetness in a ‘tea’ again. I am considering adding some lemon myrtle or maybe a bit of a tart tea to try to bring it from sugar water to lemonade but for now it is just an unnecessary sugar bomb. I should have known better.

Sil

so glad to see this since i was nearly tempted to look into this one. now i don’t have to!

KeenTeaThyme

Yikes! I wanted to try this one too. I had hoped the stevia would balance any tartness but it seems like it overwhelmed it!

Aimee Popovacki

i still don’t get why mango has to be in pink lemonade ha ha..

Uniquity

This is one the rare times that I actually wanted MORE hibiscus. How strange is that?!

Aimee Popovacki

mmm you know what, with that combo of ingridients.. i could see that!

Nicola

Definitely wasn’t too sweet. It had a tartness to it. Your taste buds are off!

Another sipdown! I put this in the fridge at work so I’d have a treat the next day, and as a bonus the company gave us carbonated water and sanpellegrino drinks (which we’ll get every week now as a perk?).

Anyway, I made tea pop with this and it was fantastic.

Have been drinking some tea lately but failing to log anything. Gah. Life is so busy! Looking for housing again, frantically trying to finish up thesis-related things…

Anyhow, figured I’d try this one earlier. I hot-brewed and chilled it, and it actually wasn’t bad. Certainly did taste like lemonade, but unfortunately, the stevia was quite noticeable and somewhat unpleasant. I would have preferred the tea to be unsweetened. Not bad, though, and certainly unique! A likely hit for those who can tolerate stevia and like lemony drinks :)

Dry Leaf Nose: Pink lemonade.

Liquor: Pink colour with a slight cloudiness.

Flavour: The flavour is very reminiscent of pink lemonade. A slight tartness from the lemon, but overall sweet with a very nice citrusy aftertaste

Preparation

Sounds like it might make a good tea pop!

Kimberly Wolfson

Sounds delicious! I assume it would be ideal consumed iced.

T. Biskitt

So good iced! Tastes just like pink lemonade! Well done, David’s!

OMG I hate this. Busy Sunday, and so I ran into DT without checking steepster ratings. I thought, pink lemonade, wouldn’t that be nice? I “flash froze” a cup….at least, I think that’s what it’s called…..I steeped about 3 tsp in my steeper and then let it empty into a big glass of ice…..first time to do the flash freeze

Is it the stevia? ….the metallic aftertaste is awful….it smells like…..lawn? ….like I am drinking yard grass? ….. I have a 50 gram pouch…..can I return it? I will never drink this…..I think the SA overcharged me on stuff anyway…..where is my bill? …. Yikes, my stomach is churning…….dumping this……..worst tea ever! ( did I say I didn’t like it)……blech……

OMGsrsly

Yikes! I think you can return teas, but I’m not 100% sure…

Lilysmom

I think I was thinking of pink passionfruit, which I had tried and liked…..not the same tea…..silly me…..

TeaLady441

Oh no! That’s awful! Maybe if you tried cold-brewing it or making it differently it might not taste so bad? Or, if you can’t return it, maybe you can swap it for something else on the discussion boards?

I would never drink this hot. I have never drank hot lemonade so why on earth would I start now just because the base is tea? I see people think it’s sweet. I actually add sugar to mine. Like southerners add loads of sugar to make their nice sweet ice tea, I do the same both for ice tea and for lemonades. Beverages or foods that make my mouth pucker will seldom find a place in my kitchen.

This tea, I always brew a 1.5 L pitcher combining two steeps. I sweeten it while hot and then I add the ice. To drink, we further pour it over ice. We think it’s refreshing although it does taste kinda fake. And we had a couple of misses with it but I couldn’t tell you what happened.

I prefer the pink Passionfruit and Goji Pop to this one, however I will replenish if it’s gone before the summer is over.

TheTeaFairy

Hot lemonade, bleh! But I’ll take homemade « Kinda fake» tasting lemonade tea as a cold beverage over any type of commercially sold soft drinks, including bottled iced tea :-)

Tea #31 from Another Traveling Tea Box

I cold steeped 2 tsp of this in my 12 ounce thermos overnight because the whole idea of warm lemonade seems, well, wrong.

I don’t know what went wrong. This is so, so not good. When it initially goes into my mouth, it’s so promising. It’s lemony, sweet (maybe a bit too much, but eh) and then it hits the back of my tongue. It becomes such a bitter mess that the first time it happened, I almost spit it out. It’s so insanely, intensely bitter, my face screws up and I fear going back for another sip.

Dumped this one out.

Preparation
Iced 8 min or more

Wow, the reviews are not very good for this tea. However, I found that I really enjoyed this. I am pretty surprised as I am not so much a fan of all the hibiscus in DTs blend lately. I don’t mind stevia, so I thought the sweetness was pretty good. I think I would even buy this again!
I would probably rate this at 90
I brewed this as iced

I had a to go cup of this while I was refilling some of my summer favorites in the tins I have successfully emptied over the last month. I wanted to like this one because it is a rooibos, but the stevia destroys this blend for me. It has this vodka-y aftertaste that I can’t get out of my mouth, and while I enjoyed the one cup I had, its not one I’ll be picking up a whole lot of in the future. Like Razzmatazz the stevia just off puts the flavor. But I do get a nice shot of pink lemonade flavor now and then :)

haha it makes me sound like a brat.. but i’m glad its not one of their better teas, since I can’t have it because of the mago lol… I HATED razzmatazz.. I don’t even know why I hated it so much.. I had one cup of it and gagged, and had to return it.. it was one of the worst one of theirs for me..

Tea #6 from Another Traveling Tea Box

The odor of the dry leaf smells odd and the tea steeps up bright red. I’m already worried about this one because the number one ingredient is hibiscus and I don’t really like hibiscus.

I brewed this up hot, then stuck it in the fridge to cool down. I just can’t see myself drinking hot pink lemonade.

I wasn’t impressed by the flavor. It tasted like I had taken a glass of water, added some sweetener, and squeezed some lemon juice in it, then added something else to give it an odd background note.

I dumped this one out.
