Day 12 - DavidsTea Advent calendar

Day 12's tea is Bear Trap, which is yet another "herbal infusion". Okay...hibiscus is the #1 ingredient (not a fan), rose hip shells (not a rose fan), and what is "natural red fruit flavouring"?

From the website:

It'll work every time

Seriously, this might be the best way to stop a bear in its tracks. They love berries, and this tea is full of them. The aroma of black currants, blackberries, strawberries and raspberries is totally irresistible. Plus it’s calming, which is important when taming wild animals. Just don’t try to take it away from them.
Best served: Hot Tea / Iced Tea / Tea Pop

Ingredients

Hibiscus, elderberries, rose hip shells, apple, papaya (papaya, sugar), lemon verbena, black currants, blueberries, strawberry leaves, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, morello cherries, natural red fruit flavouring.



Overall Impression: Tart...and that's because of the hibiscus. I can't really taste anything else other than the hibiscus. This would make a good iced tea, but not something that I'll be buying.
