Woohoo! Three Teavivre samplers came in the mail today. I decided to cash in all my Teavivre reward points and try some of the things I’ve been hearing so much about :) This has been sort of of a rough day for me, as I had a bit of headache and nausea, so I made a cup of this milk oolong because it sounded the most soothing. I’ve never had a milk oolong before, and I was surprised by just how creamy it really is. Also, peachy. I don’t know if my tastebuds are whacked out right now (I’ll do another review when I’m feeling better) but this is like Breyer’s peach ice cream in tea form. Very natural and very delicious. My one caveat is that it was a bit on the astringent side for an oolong. I think this was because I used boiling water, per the directions. I generally try to brew oolong at about 190, and I’ll probably try that next time. It may just be a matter of taste.

Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 8 OZ / 236 ML

Not Really My Style:
spices (except for ginger. ginger rocks)
chai (because, you know, the spices)
rooibos (I don’t get it. Everyone seems psyched for it. Not me).
those smoky teas, like lapsang souchong, though once in a while I’ll need something really strong and then I like them.
