This is the Strawberry Guava ($10.50; less ice, no sugar) from ChaPanda, featuring guava juice, jasmine green tea and strawberry pulp.
The beverage presented with an opaque pink-red hue, with visible strawberry purée suspended throughout.
Initial contact delivered immediate red guava notes, with its characteristic strawberry-like sweetness and tropical banana nuances. Guava dominated through the mid-palate, where jasmine green tea emerged with a soft, welcome astringency to counter the fruit’s sweetness. Towards the finish, as the liquid guava component receded, fresh strawberry pulp became more prominent, contributing a soft texture and refreshing tartness that lifted the palate.
Overall, a fruit tea with a guava-led progression that converged into a fresher, tart strawberry finish, while jasmine tea astringency tempered the fruit sweetness and maintained balance.
This Strawberry & Guava was purchased from ChaPanda in Sydney, Australia in October 2026.
