I am working my way through the David's Teas tea sampler that +Joseph O'Malley and +Michelle O'Malley got me for Christmas. Not wanting caffeine this evening, I decided to try the Apple Custard herbal. It's . . . odd.
The tisane is decidedly more custardy than apple. It's got that creamy note that David's somehow gets into some of its teas, and a definite vanilla aftertone. But I'm not really getting apple as anything more than an afterthought. I'm almost inclined to do a blend of this with a Celestial Seasonings Apple Spice to see if it strengthens the apple flavor. I may also experiment with sweetening it with honey or that apple ice cider I like so much.
I don't dislike it. It's just not what I anticipated from a tea billed as a "apple" custard.
