    Just throwing this out there because it's something I get made fun of for and y'all have been discussing tea versus coffee. I don't like tea. Typically that wouldn't be an issue except I'm from and live in the south and everyone drinks sweet tea.

    Yeah, it’s a real cultural thing down there, eh? Can’t talk them into iced coffee instead?

    I don't like either tea or coffee, both are yucky and I have to load them down with other stuff to even drink them!

    I was the kid when I’d go to friends house they’d have sweet tea on the table and I’d ask for water. Pretty much that hasn’t changed.
    I do drink coffee though but I’m a typical girly girl when it comes to it. It basically looks like hot chocolate when I’m done with it. 😂

    After working at a bank for over 15 years, coffee became a must. Basically I just made myself drink it until I liked it. 😂

    Has anyone tried butterfly pea flower tea? It brews up a deep purple and then yo add an acid to it and it changes to a magenta. It's very cool and awesome when you add lemonade and vodka to it

    I was snoring right up until you said vodka.....
    That sounds very unique, actually! Never heard of it.

    it's the latest trend so I had to get it to try it. I do this. Any baking or cooking or food trends I am a sucker for and I run out to get them and try them. Well I don't try all the deep fried grossness at fairs

    Right. You’re closer to the city than me. I’m in the boonies so I won’t hear about this tea for another 2 years.

    No deep fried Mars Bars???

    Sounds very cool.
    But how does it taste? Can you drink it cold?

    I had to google this, it’s so cool! I mean I’d try it just because it looks cool. 😂

    the blend I got is tropical so has pineapple and coconut so when you added the lemonade it just tasted fruity

    this is why I got it. I needed a non alcoholic drink for a party so googled neat drinks I might have looked specifically for purple drinks because someone had brought me some blue curaçao so I wanted to make something purple.

    I just googled the tea too - it looks so cool! One of the images I see seems to show it iced - possibly with the vodka added! ;) But I'm wondering the same thing @forestfreek is - how does it taste?


    ETA: And now we can ignore my post because I took too long to post!
