Wow, I don’t hate this one! I was so ready to not like it but it snuck up on me. The sea lettuce is definitely there, and it has that same asian restaurant flavour that Splash has, but the berries seem to mellow it out and the tea has a really high natural sweetness to me. I had it hot and without sugar and am glad I did, because I don’t think it needs any sweetener. Am definitely curious how this one will taste iced.
An avid tea addict in the GTA, Ontario, Canada. I’m always looking for new teas and new tea addicted friends!
My preference is loose leaf of all varieties, however the occasional bagged tea can come along and charm me. Flavoured or straight, there is a good chance that I will be falling in love.

My ratings system is based on the smiley faces above the ratings scale.
0-10 — This tea didn’t get past the initial sip process. I just couldn’t bring myself to drink more, I found it so horrible.
11-50 — It made it past first sips, but as I drank a bit more I realized I really wasn’t enjoying the tea, and would never drink it again.
51-60 — I probably made it through the cup, but won’t be trying another one.
61-69 — Either it’s a mystery tea and I can’t decide if I like it or not, or it is one that I felt was purely adequate.
70-85 — These are the teas that I appreciate and/or like. If they are falling in this area they are ones that I would definitely re-buy, however are not ones that I must always have on hand. The good, but not the amazing.
86-94 — These are the favourites. My cupboard feels empty if they aren’t inside.
95-100 — Tea perfection!

I tried this one yesterday and forgot to log it, but was surprised that I didn’t hate it, too! I didn’t know why or how I ended up buying it because it sounded really offputting to me, but it’s not bad.
