Teaopia - Pina Colada

Hey everyone,
Spring has finally arrived and what's a better way than to celebrate with a Pina Colada. I'm a huge fan of tea so i visit Teaopia very often. In my opinion it's one thing to see the tea in store and smell it but its very different when you bring it home and actually brew it yourself. Therefore I wanted to share for thoughts of my own on a tea that I purchased recently. 

Pina Colada
This tea has a mixture of hibiscus, apple pieces, rose-hip peel, candied pineapple and coconut flakes. The smell of this tea is wonderful, it really smells like pina colada especially when you brew it. 


The taste is a little sour and has a coconut after taste. (Keep in mind I don't bring tea with sugar) At first the taste is a little weird because I'm used to having pina colada cold and icy. After having my first cup of this tea I was a little turned off but I was craving it the next day. Now that it's getting warm out this drink is actually very refreshing. I like the idea of having a pina colada without any effort of making it and having all the ingredients for it. I think its an interesting idea of having the best of both worlds. 

Also I think tea from teaopia or loose tea in general is beautiful and I love the process of brewing this fresh tea. 
If you have any other questions I'd be happy to answer. I hope you enjoyed this. 
Until next time, 

If you are cold, tea will warm you.  If you are too heated, it will cool you.  If you are depressed, it will cheer you.  If you are excited, it will calm you.
xoxo.. Kristina
