bluegeekI have received more teas! My teas from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lauriegilbert arrived today and they are delightful. My whole kitchen smells like cherries right now. I have a happy house.
Cherry Potion is a flavored white tea from David's Tea. Ingredients are: White Bai Mu Dan tea (China), apples, mangoes, hibiscus blossoms, acerola cherries (Brazil), safflower petals, flavouring. It is sweet and smooth, and not at all medicinal (for all that I love cherry, I am very easily turned off the flavor if it reminds me too much of the medicine I was forced to take as a child). Definitely on my 'yum' list.
Organic Kanpe tea is an herbal tea from David's Tea. Ingredients are: Organic hibiscus, organic mango, organic cinnamon, organic papaya, organic banana, organic coconut, organic stevia, natural flavouring. This one is fruity and bright with a bit of tartness that lingers briefly. It reminds me of cherry crisp. Delish.
Both teas. Cherry Potion on the left and Kanpe on the right.
Southern Belle is flavored black tea from David's Tea. Ingredients are: Chinese black tea (Yunnan), peach fruit pieces, yogurt drops, stevia leaf, osmanthus flowers, flavoring. I brewed this one double strong to pour over ice for iced tea to bring to work tomorrow, so I'll update with my taste thoughts later this week. Suffice it to say, it smells lovely.
Brewed double strength:
