From the Herbal TTB!
There was a tiny bit left of this tea in a tiny little tin, and it smelled quite enticing to me. So I cold brewed it overnight to take to work today.
I made the mistake of just letting it chillax in my mason jar without a strainer and of course, I slept in this morning and was running late. I was about to put the lid on the jar and go when I noticed that I had left the leaves inside. I managed to successfully transfer the leaves and the tea into another mason jar, this time with a strainer attached. Triumphantly, I was satisfied with my successfully leaf straining skills, i walked to the trash can to dump out the leaves.
So I may have failed to mention that I was doing all of this in the dark, and it was 5AM. I did not see that my big dumb Malamute was lying down in front of the trash. Not only did I trip on him, but all the leaves fell out of the strainer basket on right on top of him.
So here I am, late for work and picking tea chunks off my dog in the dark. This tea better be good.
Luckily, it did hit the spot. I didn’t get a much hibiscus or mint in this brew, considering it was a small amount of leftovers, so the color was a light pink. I was surprised to see carrot pieces in the mix, I wonder what they do for a blend. Eh, either way, I was pleased by the light grapefruit notes and the pink lemonade feel to it. I may be persuaded to purchase this, as long as there is not an abundance of hibiscus or eucalyptus.
Flavors: Citrus, Grapefruit

I like the mental image of a big dog covered in bright pink tea leaves!
There shouldn’t be any mint in this one? Eucalyptus yes, but not mint.
Ah, I should have put ‘mint’ in quotes. Eucalyptus can have a minty aroma to me.
haha, it was dark and the whole strainer fell on him in one perfect heap. It was very difficult getting it off this super long coat. I am still picking some out of him!
Awww! That sounds annoying but adorable.
