My family was pleasantly surprised by the refreshing taste of "Tra Da." Everyone enjoyed the light sweetness and the unique flavor of the green tea, making it a delightful addition to our gatherings.
I whipped this up for a cozy weeknight dinner. It was the perfect refreshing drink to sip on while we enjoyed some takeout.
The infusion of green tea leaves releases a gentle, grassy aroma that dances with hints of sweetness, creating a refreshing and invigorating sip. Each taste unfolds layers of earthy notes, harmonizing beautifully with the sugar's subtle warmth.
