watermelon cooler

“ The Watermelon Cooler Tea has garnered a mixed spectrum of reviews, capturing the delight and occasional dissatisfaction of its consumers. Predominantly, it is celebrated for its light, refreshing qualities reminiscent of actual watermelon, with a particular emphasis on its enhanced flavor when served iced. While it contains a promising blend of apple chunks and subtle hints of rose and hibiscus, these ingredients harmonize without overpowering, instead accentuating the watermelon flavor. Critics argue it's too weak or sweet, yet fans argue its strength lies in its fidelity to watermelon's naturally subtle taste. Many have creatively tweaked steeping methods or combined it with other teas for a fuller flavor. Despite the divisiveness, this tea is an ode to summer, offering a gentle, fruity reprieve that shines when cold, making it a versatile choice for those seeking a delicate, seasonal refreshment. ”

“ Delicious, like a non-artificial watermelon jolly rancher. Agreed with using a bit more than recommended (I use double portions minimum), and the apple pieces are good enough to eat when I brew this loose. Another good hot/cold blend, and I don't need honey for it--but a little can make the watermelon flavor pop. My biggest (and only real) complaint other than the delicate flavor strength, is that the color is sometimes a gorgeous, pale medium-pink shade, and other times, almost clear. The apple ratio is a little heavy. I make up for it by adding a little Berry Creme Compote. The ratio I use is like 1/4-1/2 tsp of BCC to 2 tbsp of WC, but if I'm feeling decadent I'll do a 1:1 ratio. Watermelon-berry creme is like summer in a glass, but some days, I'm a purist (and just add a little more roselle/hibiscus to the WC blend in my cup.)
Hit with me, hit with the kid, and smells like candy. For a first blend attempt, this slaps pretty hard. If Adagio improves it in the future, I'd recommend bringing the apple ratio down a bit, upping the watermelon flavor, and making sure there's enough roselle to make the color pop for every cup. But, even if they don't... I mean, I'm already getting low on this blend, out of the 5 fruit tisane bags of tea I bought last order. So.... It IS really good. Just not always consistent with ingredients showing up in every cup. I went ahead and bought a big bag right off the bat on a hunch, and do not regret it either way. ”

“ Smells and tastes like watermelon bubbalicious! My sister I loved it. Drink it Iced or hot both are a delight! This really helps when I’m intermittently fasting to curb sugar cravings. ”

“ Refreshing, but it tastes more like watermelon candy than actual watermelon. Maybe it's a texture thing? ”

“ August 24: this time it tastes like hot fruit punch? Shrug

loved this - beautiful pink color and sweet/tart flavor; didn't need any sweetener which is a nice trick. ”
