summer teas

Soon after I left for Hawaii, the postcard for a sample of Mariage Frères' 2012 summer tea came in the mail.

This year's tea is called Havana, a green tea with hibiscus, pomegranate & goji berries. This one is quite fruity, but really refreshing as an iced tea.

Satoshi was nice enough to go to Kobe and pick up a can of their Happy Queen tea so that I could receive the free sample of Havana.

Happy Queen is a green tea base with pomegranate, citrus and peony. Not as fruity as Havana but just as delicious.

Gotta love the hot pink tin that it comes in too.

Thanks Satoshi!

Not going to lie, I would totally get it just for the hot pink canister, haha
