Day 16 - DavidsTea Advent calendar

Closer to Christmas! Today's tea is Strawberry Rhubarb Parfait, which is another herbal infusion.

From the website:

The ancient Chinese used it in medicine. The medieval Europeans traded for it along the Silk Road. And today we love it in pies, sauces, muffins or just plain, dipped in a little sugar. But the best way to eat rhubarb is with sweet, ripe strawberries. Like in this refreshingly fruity, deep red tisane. It tastes as bright and juicy as a fresh-picked berry, with a tart rhubarb punch and a subtle hint of yogurt creaminess. We love it hot or iced, or as the base for sweet, zippy sangria. Now that’s a beautiful thing. Caffeine-free.
Best served: Hot Tea / Iced Tea / Tea Pop

Ingredients

Apple, hibiscus, raisins, carrot, yogurt bits (milk powder, sugar, maltodextrin, modified starch, citric acid), beetroot, strawberry, rhubarb, natural and artificial flavouring.

 
Overall Impression: Okay, this smells fruity and actually tastes quite nice. The hibiscus isn't overpowering, which is good. Not a fan of the ingredients in the "yogurt bits" but this is something I might drink once in a while.
