Episode 347: Beet Cabbage

December 13, 2015

I've really been kind of dreading trying this tea blend from Numi Organic Tea, but I'm going to soldier on and make it happen. This Beet Cabbage blend has a black tea and honeybush base and includes apple, mustard seed, parsley, orange, coriander, and clove.

Despite my disgust of both beets and cabbage, this blend is actually very true to its intended flavor profile. The brew is a gorgeous ruby color, and the apple and honeybush really bring out the sweetness of the beets. (The cabbage, of course, tastes like cabbage.) Dare I say that this is the truest to form of all of Numi Organic Tea's savory teas?
