Our Featured Reblend for our Trick or Treat Theme for October 2020!
This blend is one that got quite a few votes for our most recent 12 Teas of Christmas poll – so I decided to reblend it for our Halloween/Trick or Treat theme for this month. It seemed appropriate, right?
This is a v.2 because the base tea is a little different. In the original (Frank’s) version, he used a blend of Gunpowder & Young Hyson green teas. I didn’t have any Young Hyson in stock, so instead, I used my tea blend of organic Gunpowder & Chun Mee green teas instead. I also added cornflower blossoms for a little bit of color.
Even with this change, I find the flavor here to be quite similar to what I remember from the original blend. Granted, it’s been a while since I had Frank’s original version of this tea, but what I remember is that I tasted Blueberry & Cotton Candy notes & that’s just what I’m getting here.
Frank’s original description went like this:
Just in time for Halloween! We’ve blended Young Hyson and Gunpowder green teas, freeze-dried blueberries and organic flavors to create the most amazing blueberry cotton candy flavored green tea EVER. I will NOT be able to reblend this one right now, as this used up the last of my green teas for the moment, so don’t miss out!
As I said, this blend varies slightly because of the base difference, but if you liked that blend, I think you’ll also enjoy this one. It’s organic, VEGAN, gluten-free & allergen-free! (It’s also super tasty!)
organic ingredients: green teas, blueberries, cornflower petals & natural flavors
