洛神花

I was skeptical about a caffeine-free tea being this bold, but the deep crimson color when it's done steeping won me over. The tartness hits right at the front and lingers a bit, which is exactly what I want in the afternoon instead of coffee.

I let it steep a good five minutes and the tartness hit just right, no sugar needed. That deep crimson pour is almost worth it on its own.

The deep crimson color alone makes this worth it, and the tang hits exactly like I hoped. I brewed mine a little longer than instructed and it got even more tart, which I loved.
