Cold Brew!
I really wanted to like this one, but the flavour composition just disagreed with me. It did have a nice rum note that I thought worked well with the coconut, but the mix of coconut and lemongrass was giving me strong sun screen lotion type vibes. Not from it being sour/rancid or anything like that, but just that kind of weird and fake-y coconut and citrus scent those lotions sometimes have. It was also a little strange since the mouthfeel was so buttery and creamy from the fat in the coconut shreds. I did finish it, but it certainly took a while and I just wasn’t an overwhelmingly positive experience.
Side note – I definitely expected a much greater presence of oolong in the blend. Especially for a company like Steven Smith Teamaker, the fact this was majority lemongrass was pretty unexpected. I feel like they might as well have just skipped the oolong and just went for an herbal blend.
Solid ice tea backlog. I liked this one. It’s more citron heavy than pina colada in my opinion, but the orange coconut combo works pretty well. The rum is a little bit overpowering smelling the leaf, but it’s cohesive and subtle in the background behind the citrus. It does sometimes overstep the coconut, which is my issue. I like citrus, but the lemongrass and orange overpower the coconut imo for it to be a pina colada. On the other end, it works pretty well and is very refreshing. Coconut milk can beef up the pina colada coconut quality to cut back on the rum. They’re low calorie mocktail recipes are kind of cool too for this one too.
I like it, yet don’t love it. My biggest gripe is that you need to add more ingredients to get a true pina colada feeling.

It has too much citrus to be a true coconut tea for me. I also wanted more oolong. It almost had more a green rooibos taste because of the overwhelming lemongrass.
