My oldest coconut tea in honor of National Coconut Torte Day. I bought a box of these teabags at a little spice shop in Nassau in August 2015. How is the coconut holding up? Not bad, actually. The teabags are individually sealed – I’m guessing that might be the reason these are still drinkable after all this time. There was some leftover water in the kettle from my husband’s tea this morning, so I accidentally added more to my cup than I typically would have. As a result, it’s tasting a bit watered down. The rum is the strongest aroma and I’m enjoying it, but I don’t necessarily taste coconut. It does have a tropical feel to it though. I do think this deserves better than the 62 rating I gave it previously, so I’m upping it a bit to 68. I bet it would be really good with less water and/or a second teabag.
