Made this one cold brewed mixed half and half with cola matcha. I added about a 1/4 tsp of white sugar. I quite like it like this. It doesn’t really taste like cola matcha or like orange matcha. It is kinda of like flat cola (my favorite) but with a light citrus flavour. It is not orange pop though. It reminds me of what I think an earl grey cola would taste like (ATTENTION COCA-COLA: please make me an Earl Grey Coke with natural oil of bergamot! Mmmmm). Anyway I think I may drink the rest of my orange matcha like this.
This is You :-D

Bio
I am a lifetime tea lover.
I did foray into the world of coffee for a period of time, but I returned to my true love. I still, however, enjoy a good cup of java.
My all time favorite tea is Earl Grey, which I drink every morning, the stronger the bergamot the better. I definitely prefer natural oil of bergamot to artificial flavouring.
I mostly like black and dark oolong teas. My current favs are Fujian blacks, Keemun and Assams, and Wuyi oolongs. I gravitate towards anything with lychee in it. I also drink a lot of herbal blends but am wary of hibiscus. I do not favour mate, or pu’erh tea, although I have found a few blends that I like. (I so badly want to like straight pu’erh tea but it all tastes gross to me. I keep trying though). Rooibos, green and white teas fall somewhere in the middle. I find myself gravitating towards heavily roasted oolongs and teas from Paris/France based companies.
I love iced teas and cold brews.
My current tea goal is to make the perfect cup of chai from scratch – almost there…I think.
I am in love with the whole experience of tea.
