Sipdown!
Perfect wintertime tea. I love the tangy cranberry with the slightly sour hibby. Suits my current mood perfectly.
Is anyone else not really feeling the holidays this year? I haven’t even put my Christmas tree up and to be totally honest, I probably won’t bother at this point at all. Last-minute gift purchasing and general fatigue (both physical and mental) abound.
Flavors: Cranberry, Fruit Punch, Fruity, Hibiscus, Pleasantly Sour, Tangy
Hello! 28, female, American. A total hopeless bookworm— I have a Bachelor’s and a Master’s in English. I also love dogs, all things that are colored purple, and sarcasm. I work in the Information Technology field at present.
I’m not a swapper, but I hope we can still be friends :)
Favorite tea types: Black, pu’erh, oolong, kombucha, genmaicha, matcha, rooibos, honeybush (recent change of heart there), and floral greens.
Favorite flavor notes: Roasted, fermented, earthy, floral, nutty, bread-y, umami; dessert-inspired flavors like chocolate, vanilla, and maple.
I’m very picky about chai and spice/ spicy blends as well as fruit-flavored teas; they really need to be done right, IMHO. I’m iffy about mate, as well as herbal teas, although there are a few tisanes that I enjoy (roasted dandelion root, chamomile).
Flat-out dislike: White tea, most unflavored green teas, hibiscus in high quantities, plain peppermint.
90-100: Perfection and heaven and magic, all in one cup.
70-89: Good.
50-69: Meh.

I’m not feeling it so much either this year.
