Full disclosure here, I probably over brewed this tea by a few minutes, but I prefer my brews to be on the strong side. That being said, the first flavor I taste off the bat is sweet. This is not a sugar free tea. The sweetness comes from the strong pineapple and strawberry presence in this blend, making the forward notes very fruity. The rose hips, lemon, or other floral flavors are definitely distant and hard to detect. I’m not sure what prickly pear cactus tastes like, but there is a slightly earthier sweet note on the aftertaste that might be the cactus. For a green tea, this is very light on the grassier notes I expect to taste, and feels almost more herbal. A fun tea to try but I’m not sure that I’d buy a whole bag to bring home.
