I was so wrong to coldbrew this for a hour. It is too bitter to drink and that was my last teaspoon in the little sample I had. :( The flavour is GREAT, and then the bitterness (like how grape fruit or oversteeped green tea is bitter). So gross.
Flavors: Bitter, Floral, Jasmine, Vegetal

No judgement whatsoever, I just find it incredibly amusing that when you cold brew it’s 10 minute to 1 hour increments and I’ve gotten to the point where it’s like “40 hours? Lol, what could go wrong”. Different strokes.
It is mostly that I get inpatient and really want to drink it. I’ve left things over night, but I usually keep them in my fridge (idk how long it would take for flavoured tea to mold, but I don’t want to risk it). My fridge pretty much permanently smells like fridge and my tea will taste like fridge if I leave it in there too long. It’s the curse of living with other people. I can clean out the fridge and the smell will come back.

I’ve only had something go moldy on me once – I noticed after I’d forgotten about it and it’d been steeping for around five days. I don’t know exactly what the tipping point was, though. That makes sense about the fridge smells, though.
