This smells more fruity, and as you can see it\u2019s full of big pieces of dried oranges. It brewed into a deep red color, like beets. The brewed tea does not smell as good as the loose tea. It has a very sweet fruity smell with a weird faint underlying vegetable\/dirt smell (perhaps it\u2019s the beets again). It\u2019s made me scared to drink it. <\/p>\n<p>Here goes.<\/p>\n<p>Ok it\u2019s not bad. But it is not at all tomato-y or any kind of vegetable-y. I don\u2019t even taste lime. It\u2019s just weird. The over lying flavor is orange, apple and plum. Weird. <\/p>\n<p>I think it might be better as an iced tea than a hot tea. But it does not at all taste like tomatoes, so if you want a tea that does, stick with the <a href=\"http:\/\/shop.numitea.com\/Tomato-Mint\/p\/NUMIS-160048&#038;c=NumiTeaStore@Teabag@Savory\" target=\"_blank\">Numi<\/a>. <\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-text sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-142\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button no-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/bloodyqueencity.com\/wp\/?p=142&amp;share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\" ><span>Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-142\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button no-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/bloodyqueencity.com\/wp\/?p=142&amp;share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\" ><span>Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-pinterest-142\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button no-icon\" href=\"http:\/\/bloodyqueencity.com\/wp\/?p=142&amp;share=pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\" ><span>Pinterest<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button no-icon\" href=\"mailto:?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20Tomato%20Lime%20Cocktail%20Tea&body=http%3A%2F%2Fbloodyqueencity.com%2Fwp%2F%3Fp%3D142&share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email a link to a friend\" data-email-share-error-title=\"Do you have email set up?\" data-email-share-error-text=\"If you&#039;re having problems sharing via email, you might not have email set up for your browser.
