Sample I found out about on Steepster. I placed my sample order on 3/16 and paid through PayPal. It ended up costing $2.80. 3/21 I received notice it was being shipped. It arrived today, 3/23, and was promptly had for dessert after dinner. It came with a nice pamphlet about their specialty tea blends and a hand written note on the bottom of my receipt.
Post-Steep Additives: 1 tsp German rock sugar, sweeter, softens the hibiscus but not much else.
I think this would taste good as a sweetened iced tea as well.
Resteep: was amazingly just as good as the first go!

How do you go about getting samples? Anything that has strawberry and hibiscus is something that I’d like to try.

however shipping was 2.80 to me, but it was a 4-6 tsp sample so the same if not more than i’d usually pay 2-3 $ for anyway
