Uh, so…. this packs a whallop of caffeine. Like, more than any matcha I’ve had (and I used to drink it constantly, it helped me to focus). It’s like the junk food of matcha – comes pre-packaged, has a ton of ingredients that shouldn’t be in there including glucose (twice) and hydrogenated oils, you name it. Yet the ginger zing really, really came out in this – almost like a ginger latte more than a ginger matcha latte. Guilty pleasure, just maybe not so late (2pm) in the day, because it’s 9pm now, and I feel very weird. Not good. Definitely the matcha.

Flavors: Ginger, Sugar, Sweet

I love Gold Kili’s Ginger Latte and Ginger Drink but I’ve never seen any of their products with matcha in them for sale near me. It sounds really tasty.

I could probably just make my own, with a packet of ginger drink (which has very few ingredients) a spoon of matcha and some cream.

I would say that would be a healthier option? Lol. Found this in an Asian grocery store in ixelles, Belgium.

It sounds like the ‘instant ramen’ version of ramen! (Which means, I’d be totally down with it, in an ’I’m just going to inhale this food and not pay attention to the ingredient label, because, gosh darn it, I want this right now!’, sort of way. lol )

Oh man I bet this would be divine with a splash of honey! Unless it’s already almost too sweet

That’s exactly it DeleriumsFrogs! Indigobloom, would you believe it has honey in it already? It’s very, very sweet. Still tasty!

A few years ago, the obsession with tea started. The cupboard got bigger and bigger, more swaps occurred, group buys, secret rendezvous with local teapassionistas… and that’s how you end up with 500+ different kinds of tea in your home. At one time.

Almost all of the tea was given away, sold, or otherwise shared. A few relics still remain. I now travel full time with only two carryon bags to my name. One quarter of those bags are tea.

It’s still a challenge to avoid the chipmunk-like hoarding of The Teas, yet, the lightness of being from having so little compels me more.

If I have enough, I’m happy to share. If I’m in your area, I’d love to swap, meet for tea, and explore together.

As for the day-to-day stuff, I’m focused almost entirely on Love, (yes, with a capital L), Spirit/Self, transformation, travel and my writing and speaking work.

What kinds of teas do I normally like?

YES: flavored teas, fruity, dessert, chai, and spicy (REALLY spicy).

A FONDNESS FOR: all white teas, malty black teas, any herbal or medicinal teas, strange/weird teas you can only get in one place.

ALLERGIC TO: strawberries, lavender

DISLIKES: any added sugars, grains, lapsang souchong, and overly floral teas – I might enjoy a Jasmine Green every once in a while, but unless it’s a creamy floral tea (think roses in a chai, or the smoothness of a floral note in a French tea), I’ll likely pass. Earl Greys are a hit or miss with me; heavy on the cream or fruit notes and I might like it, heavy on the blergamot and I definitely won’t.
