Davids Tea's Pink Passionfruit Tea Review

 Pink Passionfruit
Passion fruits are pretty aptly named: all it takes is one taste to fall completely head over heels. Take this juicy, fruit-packed tisane. From its seductively tropical aroma to its blushing pink colour,it’s guaranteed to get your heart racing right from the get go. And once you finish your first glass, you’ll know you’ve found The One. Sweet, tangy and addictively refreshing, it has all the makings of the perfect summer fling.

Price: $6.50 per 1.76 oz/$3.69 per oz... I got this as a free sample.
Preparations: 1.25 tsp, 205 degrees F, 4-5 min.

  • First thing I noticed: it smelled so nice. Very fruity and sweet, there are tangy bits of hibiscus and apples, and its presentation in the form of tea leaves is just too cute. Did I mention that it smelled super good?
  • After steeping it, it smells even better. Yum. And its hue is a nice pale pink color, probably because of the hibiscus.
  • It works good as an iced tea - so long as you double the amount given above (at least 2 tsp). Very refreshing and light.
  • Maybe it's just because I prefer warm drinks, but I liked it better when it's in the form of a hot tea. The flavors seem to come out more.
  • On that note, there is a tinge of something bubblegum-y and almost a little saccharine on the tongue, which I didn't really appreciate, but it's not so noticeable that it ruins the taste of the tea. It seems to be just there as a fleeting aftertaste. I think it's because (according to the ingredients) of the artificial flavoring.
  • Still, I would definitely buy it! If you like sweet and fruity teas, then you will most likely love it.
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars!
