This smells and tastes exactly like when I smash up fresh strawberries to make strawberry shortcake. The scent is reminding me of home and my grandmother, who taught me how to make strawberry shortcake. Also, the green rooibos is such a great choice.

Edit: I picked the marshmallows out of here, just in case they weren’t vegan.

I love strawberry shortcake – I always serve myself 60% cream, 30% strawberry, and 10% cake. But I’ve got this tea on my shelf, and I think you’ve convinced me to finally open it!

Strawberry shortcake is the best! I hope you enjoy this one!

This sounds so good! Why do so many tea companies use red rooibos and not green?

I’ve no idea Inkling, but I wish they would incorporate more green!

Profile

Bio

I love black and oolong (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted) teas, followed by green or red rooibos, herbals, whites, and subtly flavoured greens.

Likes:
Raspberry, strawberry, peach, apricot, rhubarb, passionfruit, blackcurrant, redcurrant, fig, and most fruits in general, maple, creaminess, hay, biscuit, lavender, and cacao/dark chocolate.

I enjoy bergamot when paired with flavours that mellow it.

Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, stevia, too much blackberry leaf, rose, jasmine, ginger (except in chai), cinnamon-heavy teas, anything cloying or fake/candy-like.

I’m vegan and have an allergy to potatoes, so I avoid any animal products in tea, along with sprinkles as these often have potato starch (I’ll happily pick them out of blends).
