7 Tasting Notes
I’m not usually a big fan of fruity teas, especially herbals, so this strawberry green tea was something new worth trying…. What a nice surprise! The subtley sweet strawberry taste is really well complimented by the floral and slightly bitter green tea. Lovely!!!!
Ooooooo nice!!!!! I just curled up with this tea and a new book tonight. The books turning into a dud, but the tea is divine!!!! A delicate spicy chai that is perfectly balanced with light floral jasmine and rose. Im drinking it warm with milk and a touch of sugar. Mmmmmmmmmmm, I should have dusted off a copy of my old 1001 Arabian Nights to properly enjoy this decadent treat, rather than the pulpy trash i initially chose…. Oops, is this tea making me sound too pretentious??? One of my new favourites for sure!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
Preparation
I’ve been enjoying creaming Earl Grey loose leaf teas for several years now – sampling blends from lots of different tea shops. This Steeped Tea blend is a particularly lovely blend. The iconic bergamot flavour is strong but very well balanced by the creaminess that makes this tea such a memorable go-to for me. In addition to drinking this tea, I have also started experimenting with using it in different recipes. My Earl Grey de la Creme pancakes were a hit at our breakfast table last weekend. My 10 year old liked them even better then the Cherry Pie Rooibos pancakes I made the day before.
Preparation
a new favourite with my kids – I make this into a Cherry Pie Rooibos Latte that has become their preferred hot beverage (over hot chocolate). I’ve also incorporated it into my pancake mix for a special weekend breakfast. DELICIOUS!!!
