I am tasting the medicine ball for the first time ever and it's actually disgusting. Literally just tastes like hot lemonade. Can't taste the teas at all. I don't get the hype.

Mint Majesty > Jade Citrus Mint in terms of flavor
David’s Tea > Teavana 🤭

Cold buster & medicine ball are among "secret menu" names for the Honey Citrus Mint Tea.

Ah so it's the same drink. Never heard it called a cold buster. Either way it was gross, idk why people like it.

People like warm things that make their throat feel better, plus it's super sweet. Honestly, the people who usually get it aren't the people who I see usually drinking tea, so I think they like it because it doesn't taste like tea.
I'm with you though; I'm a big tea drinker, and the HCMT isn't my favourite.

It tastes like hot Gatorade. The first time I have it was when I mobile ordered a citrus defender (the alpha) from a different store and they made a honey citrus mint instead and I didn’t know until I was on my merry way and took a sip. I gagged in the middle of the sidewalk. I tried to finish it but I legit couldn’t
Yeah same, I could not finish it. Felt bad wasting it :/

Try again with light lemonade, like really light. And use real honey instead of honey syrup. There's another way. Instead of lemonade, use apple juice. Itll taste like sour apple :]

My fiancée loves them. I gag every time I make her one.

i was curious about the hype and was also very disappointed when i tried it. i will say i liked it a lot better after it had gotten cold. kinda defeats the purpose but it didn’t go to waste at least!

I think people only like it because of the name “Medicine ball” “cold buster” because they believe it’ll cure their cold lol.

I really dislike the peach tea, so I don’t like it. I’m real sad they’re discontinuing defense cause it’s sooo much better
