Picture this: You are are on the island of Kaua’i walking in a little farmers market in the town of Kapa’a. A few feet away you hear a man start to sing, “Ice cold coconut! Fresh from the tree! Ice cold coconut! Get them from me!” With a jingle like that, you find it hard to not buy one. The white, silky meat is delicious. Nothing like those sadface brown coconuts you get in the grocery stores at home in the midwest.
But wait! This isn’t a post about coconut it’s a post about tea right? That is correct. Well, not real tea anyway but instead a tisane of all fruit. Mango, pineapple, and coconut to be exact.
This tea comes from VOCE. They have a small and appealing collection of fruit tea. Some which have herbs, like Lemon Raspberry Mint. That sounds amazing.
This evening I’m sipping on Mango Pineapple Coconut. Thus my introduction. I’m not going to lie I was very skeptical. Most fruit teas taste artificial and… somewhat gross. This one though does not. Even the teabag is enticing! These aren’t just your regular coconut flakes these are the stuff of memories! Memories like the one above. The taste is silky and full of all of the flavors. I’m tempted to add some rum…
