Sara’s custom Advent tea calendar, 19th day!

The leaf smelled strongly of ginger and turmeric.

The turmeric and ginger are pretty balanced in the beginning of the sip, while I taste licorice root at the end of the sip. The taste lingers a bit after the sip, mostly the licorice root, but it doesn’t burn. This is milder than I thought it would be, with all the delicious spices. But it is strong enough that I’ll bet it would work great as a latte too.

Flavors: Ginger, Licorice

Preparation
Boiling 5 min, 0 sec 3 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

Usually turm/ginger teas burn my mouth to pieces. Does the licorice really balance it that much? Huh! I haven’t tried this one yet!

Todd

Try it! Not a hint of burn for me… so perhaps a slight burn for you, but shouldn’t be bad! That TeaCrush ginger that was too much for you, I could really detect the kick, but enjoyed it. This one should be up your alley.

The Turmeric Ginger Pear Teacrush I was fine with (my favorite!), it was the Cayenne Pepper one that was too much for me! That one was… hoo boy, ya. Tea Chai Te has a turm/ginger tea that I can only drink if I infuse it directly in coconut milk, not water!

Todd

Oh that’s right. I mixed them up.

I have enjoyed various teas most of my life, but have recently started exploring higher-end teas. Still, plain houjicha (loose-leaf or bagged) makes me feel like I’m in Japan.
