Backlog and Sip Down
I drank this on Saturday before hosting food and party games with friends. I needed a jolt of caffeine to allow me to stay up past my (weekend) bedtime…Typically, I go to bed between 00:30 or 01:00 during the week since my shift ends at 00:00, but for the weekend, I prefer the 22:30-23:00 bedtime and 06:00 rise from sleep. I know what you’re thinking at this point, Wow, thank you for including us in your sleep schedule. Ha-ha.
Okay, here we go…
I recorded a video for the YT channel and will have it posted tomorrow (Wednesday) at some point. However, I prefer dropping my thoughts on Steepster early since this is the OG place for tea reviewing. I brewed this tea hot with and without oat milk.
With oat milk: Pineapple and bitterness.
With oat milk: Sweet pineapple and creamy coconut.
Preferred brewing method is with the oat milk and hot. I attempted a sip of the iced version I made later in the evening, but the milk was stronger than the tea itself. Hot really seems to extract the flavors of the matcha waaaay more.
Flavors: Bitter, Coconut, Creamy, Pineapple
Bird & Blend Matcha Advent Calendar 2023 – Day 18
To be honest… I don’t really taste the pineapple or the coconut here? I made this as an iced latte (as always), and honestly if I were guessing the flavor, I would guess lemon. It’s quite creamy and sweet, but the only discernable flavoring I’m getting is lemon, and it must be from the peel? Perhaps a hint of piña colada in the finish?
I mean it’s still good, I’m just surprised not to taste more pineapple, and certainly more coconut.
Flavors: Citrus, Creamy, Fruity, Lemon, Smooth, Sweet
Adventageddon Day 18 – Tea 2/4
Since I’ve tried this matcha before and wasn’t a huge fan I decided to do something new with it and make it as an iced latte. It tasted fine, but honestly it’s a very mildly flavoured matcha and I probably should have used more for this style of drink preperation since I could only get the faintest bit of pineapple taste. I much prefer the Pina Colada herbal powder that B&B used to carry – it’s a lot more flavourful.

Song Pairing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oWhtLSGYbE
It rained soooo much today, so between that and the day’s tea selection I just had the Escape Song on a constant loop in the back of my head. I actually posted the original Rupert Holmes version of the song on IG, but it’s the Jack Johnson cover (which is what I linked here) that I wanted to showcase – it just wasn’t available as an audio option in stories.
