So i wanted to try this as a cold brew since the warm cup i had was more raspberry than sponge cake. It turns out, the cake was hiding in the cold brew :) This is a creamy cup of delicious cake like tea. I am digging this. Now i just need to try and figure out how to get this taste with a hot brew!

These Bluebird teas keep popping up on my feed with great reviews – I may have to give in and order some myself!
Some where around 10-14 hours…. I never time them. Just toss them I and drink them somewhere between 1 to 3 days later lol
If i figure it out hot, i’ll let you know how i managed it lol but so far i’m with you on the hot = no cake :)
How do I open the packages? Do I have to cut the tops off? It’s been here for 45 mins & I haven’t smelt them yet, I’m having anxiety ahhhh lol
Not sure why, but it does make me think of sponge cake when it’s hot – only because it gives in my mouth? IDK. It’s an imagined texture thing perhaps.
tattoed_Tea – pretty sure you just cut the top off. I got mine in a swap from hallieod but it looks like that’s what she did to me. IE. it’s no resealable, which would be my only negative comment….i prefer resealable packages! :)
Sil, did you ever find any cake in the hot brew? Have the tiniest sample of this that I want to brew this afternoon but am bent on finding cake and wanting something warm…
I can’t wait for my order to get here.

How long did you cold brew it for?

Nice!! I’m going to have to try this one cold!
Ooh. I’ll have to ice it!
See, I knew it’d find a better home with you. :) We just gave up when we couldn’t discern any cake.
